I'm not sure I see what you're talking about here - what will be too large?  
The window?

For modules, I would have something like:
  Services
      |- Jabber
      |- MSN
      |- Yahoo
  Utilities
      |- Auto-translate
      |- Rainbow

That's the goal of course!  :-)

Done [I think].

Now, as I'm looking at pref stuff...  it would be nice if prefs_window could 
move into the gtk dir.  To do this, I think prefs.[ch] should have a struct 
containing the prefs which it can pass to the window's constructor [sorry, 
C++ speak :-)].  E.G. in prefs.h:

struct prefs
{
        int             do_login_on_startup;
        int             do_ayttm_debug;
        int             do_ayttm_debug_html;
...
};

Then prefs.c has the one global instance and the prefs window can be totally 
independent.  It also eliminates the 
do_login_on_startup/do_login_on_startup_old stuff because we can just copy 
the struct.

The one issue I see with this immediately is the GdkDeviceKey we use for the 
accelprev and next, but that can be sorted out somehow...

Comments/suggestions?
