Subject: [PATCH] no hand holding
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The line under every nav row, the line under every font select, and the caption
under the preview. Each explained a control to somebody who has already found
it, and the caption was wrong as well — there is no Save to press.

The nav rows are one line now, so they centre.
