It's not just an attempt, it's the future. (but for Cancel/Apply/Ok, it
requires -lib ggee from pd-extended)

I was going to do it for 9.10 but there was too much new stuff already. I
want it for 9.11, together with the ability to save the spacing settings
disk.

I'd also want to be able to preserve the boxes as they are at that moment,
if I don't modify those settings...

Currently I don't even use "donecanvasdialog" as in canvas-properties, I
use "coords" as in the "#X coords" lines of the file format. They're
roughly equivalent, but if I hit a redraw problem with "coords", I will
have to switch to "donecanvasdialog", or whatever else. I already use it
when setting the spacing, because it changes the size of the GOP.
