Replying to [comment:6 yourpalal]:
> It's true that there's some connection, but I think (could be wrong)
that the icon is just for the specific file, not for all files of that
type, so maybe it's good to downplay that connection ;) If it's a global
change, then I would either move the icon view into the FileType box, or
remove it from the window altogether
You're right, actually. All three settings are file specific and not
global. So, where the icon well appears doesn't really matter after all. I
think having it to the right of the preferred app looks best as all
buttons are then left aligned.

the icon back to the right of the file type. Unfortunatley resizing the
window truncates buttons.

How's that done? Your padding hint did the trick. Anyway, not to draw this
thing out any longer, I updated the FileTypeWindow.diff. Can be applied if
there's consensus on this bikeshed...
