One thing I'd love to get back (back when palapeli was young in playground
this was possible) is the abilitiy to have the preview as separate window
so that I can move it to my second monitor and make it larger than possible
inside the puzzle area. Making the mainwindow itself big enough is not very
useful as I'd have scrollbars on both screens and had to move the mouse a
lot more. The preview window is something that I'd not touch at all if its
on a separate monitor.
