the about dialog positions oddly and when clicked on makes the add widgets disappear. i wonder if we could embed the about information in the tooltip as annieC had it at one point?

instead of "Stop Running Widgets" (which to me at least implies they'll just be halted, in a reversable manner) it should probably be "Removed Running %1" where %1 is the name of the widget. however, i'm not even sure we need or want that. the use case seems very suspect to me and we purposefully didn't include it in the add widgets interface, particularly because it doesn't say which widgets would be removed and could be rather unexpected. how often does one really want to remove all of one kind of widget? hm.

speaking of closing and removing, we also need a close button in the add widgets interface itself, to the right of the categories tab widget. i should get on that.
