Update designs for system dialogs
The current state of GNOME system dialogs could be improved. Specific issues:
- Text styling is inconsistent
- Layout is inconsistent
- Inconsistencies with GNOME's existing dialogs:
- They use icons when GNOME's other dialogs don't
- Text styling doesn't follow GNOME's conventions
- They all use message dialog style buttons: if they were HIG confrmant they wouldn't
- In general, they could look better
We ought to figure out a design for these dialogs before we try to resolve these issues.
Since the toolkits are different, trying to make shell and GTK dialogs look the same might be futile. We might want to think about developing a visual style and UI conventions for the shell that are distinct in some respects.
