here are a few suggestions/complaints from me, off the top of my head.
i'll try to add more when i remember something.  my lazarus version is
0.9.29.27722 (at this moment).


flaw - stringgrid border - win32 widgetset
stringgrid border flickers on resize (unless flat property is set but
we don't want that)


flaw - form border on kde4 (posibly other window managers)
form borderstyle bsDialog does nothing under kde4 (gtk2 widgetset) -
nothing good that is - form gets the xwindows icon and that's it
(still resizable (also with bsSingle), border icons still there).


flaw - message dialogs on kde4 (gtk2 widgetset)
in addition to having a sizable border (see previous paragraph),
message dialogs (invoked by MessageDlg function) also sport an ugly
crisp icon. isn't it time lazarus said NO to bitmapped images / icons
/ button glyphs?
