TkPerl has these, and they're installed by default on Win32 Perl. Really a
lovely way to do a *lot* of stuff in a little screen real estate. To
maintain the separation between easy fiddling and Deep Magic, it might be
good to put the common stuff on buttons/buttcons and drop-down-lists, and
the heavy-duty stuff on a tabbed notebook.
