Yes, it's called "layout managers". Something most Linux & all Java
widgetsets support, and something that will be well worth implementing
in LCL. MiG Layout might be the best candidate of them all.

Download the Swing demo and give it a try. It has awesome features and
NO nested layout managers. All you need for any dialog is one instance
of MiG Layout.
