Essentially, one for each tab on the Xtreme options dialog, remembering
that print options etc. is really the same dialog. So I reckon something
like:

"General", "Grid and ruler", "Mouse", "Page", "Scaling", "Tune-up", 
"Units", "View", and (disabled right now), "Effects & Plugins" (bitmap 
effects), "Internet", "Output" and "Print Layout"

They can be any size you like, but they all have to be the same size
as eachother if they are displayed in a single dialog (if you see
what I mean). I think 32x32 is about right.

Well, "Mouse" is an overlap. But I couldn't just go take them anyway
as presumably whoever did them would have to sign the CA.

Interestingly, they use a control with levels (subpages). We can
do this too (though I need something in the kernel to say whether
the page is a subpage or not, and if so a subpage of what).
Right now, with 8 tabs appearing, I don't think we need subpages.
