The 2 dialogs are different things.
- The setup is a wizard-like dialog
- The options is a normal direct access to all options dialog
There are other applications, with have a wizard and and option page.
Often though the wizard is part of the installer. But that makes no
difference, it still holds that the wizard gathers the same info, that
is also in the option dialog.
I am very much in favour of keeping both. And each with the layout it
currently has.
