Comments/Problems:
No problems for this "default" install.
Ideas:
- Blank lines in the menus should not be selectable.
- It would be helpful if strings in configuration dialogs were overwritten by default, and only after pressing an "edit" key (cursor movement, backspace, ...) changed to edit mode, like it is done in "Midnight Commander" dialogs.
- English language will probably be selected also by people who do not live in an English-speaking country (like me), therefore the full selection of areas would make sense for this language. Maybe the English-speaking regions should still appear on top.
Keep up the good work!
