Thanks.

I thought of

  [<component>] ...

where <component> is the value given in the `FT_COMPONENT` macro,
padded with spaces to ensure a uniform width.  Example:

  [cffdriver] ...
  [psconv   ] ...
  [sfobjs   ] ...

However, this should be freely adjustable – thus my request to make
`{` and `}` configurable in the 'dlg' library.

What do you mean with 'toggle'?
