I like it very much. The push buttons look much more moden than radio buttons.</p>

I think a UI design choice like this is an important decision and I hope to get some more opinions (I don't know how large the group of active parley- and usability-devs are at the moment). But if nobody raises any objections or states a preference for the old design, I will commit this change next weekend.</p></pre>

Instead of QRadioButtons, the new design uses QPushButtons and tweaks their appearance using Qt Style Sheets making sure that the design works with all themes available on Get Hot New Stuff. The results are displayed in the screenshots attached:</p>
<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">New design:
In screenshot 1, entry 2 has keyboard focus while the mouse is hovering over entry 5. This uses the Gray theme.
In screenshot 2, the wrong entry 3 was selected. Additionally, the correct entry 2 is highlighted. Here, the Darkness theme is used.
In screenshot 3, the correct entry 3 was selected. Here, the Bees theme is used.</p>
<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">Old design:
Screenshots 4-6 correspond to screenshots 1-3, but using the old design for comparison.</p>
<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">I think, the new approach has some advantages over the old QRadioButton approach.</p>
<ul style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0 0 0 1em;line-height: inherit;white-space: normal;">
<li style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: normal;">Labels 1-5 indicate that entries can be selected by using this numbers as shortcuts.</li>
<li style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: normal;">Borders around the words instead of underlining the word makes it clearer which entry is selected.</li>
<li style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: normal;">Black text on light red or light green background is more legible than red/green text.</li>
</ul>
<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">I have put much thought into this change and while I think the new approach is an improvement, I have also come to appreciate the QRadioButton approach. I am looking forward to hear your thoughts.</p></pre>
