Status in OpenObject GTK Client: Fix Released

Bug description:
Hi...

I have been testing for some hours the new trunk version. I think there is a lot of good changes made comparing last version, but there is some changes that I think could confuse the actual 5.0 user.

Some of my teachers said sometime that versioning software is good but new version should mantain most as possible general usage and aparence of last version. So I can see, there is many changes that could be mantained from this version, just to make users learning easier new version.

Here is the list:
1. Products and companies are inside right side menus. I should let them on general menu left side.
2. Search forms: 
      a) Find and clean buttons are now left side, not right side. User has to change the way they move usually mouse to find them.
      b) Previows and next buttons are now right side, not left side. Same case. I think they should stay same place they are now.
      c) "status" filter button: REALLY GREAT IDEA!!!! I think this new feature is  the best change on client from 5.0.6 but, if you push one of them the others should be "not pushed". Otherwise, you obtain no lines and you have to click two times one to unclick the previous button and second to click the new status.
      d) Autovalidate combo. Too complex. Not usefull. It's complicated knowing the field you really need in a moment. I think it should only show the fields marked as "searcheable = 1 and searcheable = 2" on view to improve usability. Great idea also having "OR" filter possibility and saving filters. 

3. Menus:
Too many changes. A final user, using 5.0 have to learn again where most options are located. Configuration menus are shown downside, not upside. It's necesary looking for them. Even if I know is maybe more logic, because is grouped by functionality... we all have to learn again. :)

Maybe this little things are not important for you. It's not for myself but IMHO, I think it's very important for final users skilled with 5.0.6 mantaining previous way of working when it's possible. 

I will go on testing trunk, next days

Thank you very much!!!
