Yes, it is a bit.

I'm not sure that there's a logical separation in what is in the dialogue.
Everything seems to belong on the one page.

Well I really didn't understand the old labels and I don't think the user
should have to work out that there's a `what's this' or even a tool
tip.

I'm not sure that the active language makes much sence, it's just a
configuration option so it should be with the other configuration options
(on codeGenerationOptionsPage).  However the combo box is a good idea,
I'll do that.

Anyone else got any good ideas.

Thanks for keeping an eye on me Luis.
