I've been testing and I like it. Thanks for your work on it. I did just
get the following message on the terminal (not sure exactly what I did):

frontends/qt4/ButtonPolicy.cpp (228): OkApplyCancelAutoReadOnlyPolicy:
No transition for input SMI_APPLY from state AUTOAPPLY_INITIAL

This was on 39596ab5.

It might also look nicer to vertically align "Color:" with "Family:".
Perhaps also top-align "Semantic Markup" with "Language:" ? I'm not too
confident though in my UI suggestions.
