The changes proposed by Jeff are not that disruptive. It is just adding
'...' or changing Cancel->Close, so I guess it is not a big deal for the
users. Obviously it is better to have pictures showing dialogs and menus
exactly as you find them in the software, but I suppose nobody will even
notice that a button is labeled 'Close' instead of 'Cancel'.
