I don't think it is very scalable since it insists on doing the layout stuff 
itself. When the number of options in your dialog increase there comes a time 
that you want to actually order them, that will not happen if it means that 
you have to redesign much of the code in order to move from KAutoConfigDialog 
to some .ui file driven approach.

The right approach IMHO is to use .ui files from the begin. That way the UI 
can be designed driven by UI concerns and not driven by limitations of the 
implementation.

Cheers,
Waldo
