Great work, Tom and Orson.

Just an other small request/fix:
At least on Windows, the View menu is broken.
This is due to a really obscure bug in wxWidgets, when the last menuitem  in a menu has the type
wxCHECK_MENU.
Just move this menuitem to a previous position (for instance just after "List Nets") fixes this issue.

Thanks.
