The size of the buttons and the proportions make quite some part of the 
elegance and vividness of this widget style. I know that developer really try 
to get things optimized for effectiveness. But people who don't intend to 
squeeze stuff on the lowest amount of space possible (you don't do this when 
you design things like telephones either -especially if they are intended to 
be beautiful)  but care about proportions and stuff like that might think 
different. 
Anyways - qwertz has the last decision on this and if he thinks that it looks 
perfect right now then I'll trust him 500% and I suggest to you to do the 
same :-)    (oh wait - qwertz will hardly ever think that something that was 
created by him looks perfect ... so don't trust him if he considers his work 
to be ugly ;-). SCNR
