The custom options in "other" has a big memo, the new
only a short edit. When this is improved in the new view, then the old
can be merged.

... and the inherited page became more important to find out, where the
options are coming from.
Maybe the "inherited" content should be moved to the "show options"
dialog.

Every package already has its own "show options" button.
But maybe a select combobox could be added to the "show options"
dialog, so you don't need to switch the modal dialogs.
