The main toolbar is for me the best choice.
Moreover if (or when) netclasses will take in account the layers and the 
netclass management is more
powerful, I am guessing this setup will be frequently modified, so it deserves 
a easy and fast access.

An other enhancement in this kind of dialog could be to reopen the paged dialog 
to the last opened
page during a session.
