Thanks Paul - that's something that I hadn't realised.  From the 
comments above, presumably the "open historical map" people are using 
the same list rather than one tailored to historical mapping though?

Happy to make suggestions there, but that's a bit beyond the scope of 
the issue that I was originally trying to raise (that a menu started 
half-way down a screen and finished below it), and well into "suggested 
enhancement" rather than "bug" territory.
