At magnification 5 or 6 the unit font names are an ok size, but at 4 or below
they really clutter up the screen.

I think that would be a nice change :). The order is fine, that was just an
alternative suggestion.

The way I tried to do it (the only attempt I have made at hacking xconq), was
to add a new menu type `separator' that had `---' on the list on the left, and
returned nothing. Um, it didn't work.

Thanks, Richard.
