That is certainly much better, but as you imply, it's not perfect  
either.

Yes, I think this is the best thing to do. I'll also watch out for any  
similar occurences, and report all of those too.

If it can be fixed with a different design, it should be fixed. Of  
course, lets not put our hopes high for a quick solution, more so  
because the problem has been lingering for a while. And since we heard  
"rumours" (if stories by Evolution hackers should be called rumours :-)  
of Evolution getting interface redesigned, this is one thing they  
should keep in mind in that process.

If you report it in Bugzilla, please add me to CC. Thanks.

Btw, would you consider starting a one common bug for these issues just  
like bug #116236 is for ngettext? I think many other similar issues are  
going to pop out once we turn on our detectors for that, and one  
reference point for general discussion is always nice to have ;-)
