    initial v1  
    33I have a few other suggestions: If a td contains only a few lines that don't change very often they should only be as high as required to display their content. Examples are the layer diag which for me only ever displays up to three lines of content (GPX+OSM+Satimg) and the map paint styles dialog.

    5 Since we moved to Java 6 dragging could be introduced to replace up down buttons. Take the mappaint td as an example: It has 4 buttons: toggle, up, down and preferences. Toggling already works using the checkbox in front of each entry and could become even simply by catching double clicks. Up/down may be replaced by dragging and the pref button could be replaced by an "additional mapstile" called "configure…" or similar.

    77The properties dialog could work without any buttons if it were an editable table like in the relation editor. I fear that this makes it less obvious though how to use it. We could however move the buttons to the right hand side (i.e. vertically) because all new monitors are wider than heigh.

    99Neither of suggestions will work for any td tough as they are very specific. Another thing that would save a few pixels is to get rid of all the insets and replace them with a small line between each dialog. It probably won't get much more than one additional line but it would make look JOSM cleaner :)
