New Kettle trunk GUI look

[DEinspanjer]

In general, I really like the new layout. One thing I'd mention is
that I frequently close tabs when I am done with a particular task.
When I closed the last tab, I realized that moving the toolbar
completely inside the tab means there is no New or Open buttons
available if you don't have a tab. Obviously you can still use the
File menu so it isn't a big deal but it still feels a bit odd.

True enough Daniel,

We're adding a small toolbar (and a location bar) to the browser widget and
when there is nothing left on the right side (all tabs closed) there should
be something in the empty space too. We're still working on that one.

Other things that should arrive shortly:
- mini-toolbars in the small tabs at the bottom
- maximize/restore and close icons for the Execution results frame.
- removal of all the ugly buttons in the right bottom corner. (should go up or
in the tabs)

Cheers,

Matt

Any chance other people are seeing a crash in trunk when trying to
preview a trans?
