Considering how I got the letters to display in the first place, anything that improves the appearance even slightly that doesn't hender performance is welcome in my book. I'm applying this to my branch until ossi has a chance to look at it in the meantime.

As for table, perhaps that would be the better way to go considering it would make things a bit more uniform. I swore off gtk some years back* so this is technically the only gtk app I've ever contributed to. Perhaps ossi can have a look at that. Alternatively, patches are welcome ;-)

* I find Qt far more intuitive and the rediculously long names in (py)gtk irk me.

[edit]
I'll probably sanitize the variable names before I request for a merge though, qwerty12. ****ing hilarious though.
