Hello.

I added a very simple settings dialogue today. As most settings just store  
the current state of the UI, the only that currently can/has to be  
configured is the size of the page cache in which the rendered pages of  
all currently opened documents are cached. (This should probably be set by  
some sensible heuristic, but there does not seem to be a platform  
independent Qt interface to obtain memory information.)

Currently this is just done using a simple QLineEdit with a QIntValidator  
and the user has to input the requested size in bytes. This is probably  
not very sensible. So I was thinking whether somebody would like to  
implement this using a QComboBox containing sensible presets or make a  
custom validator or something similar so that suffixes like 'KB' or 'MB'  
can be used. (And a suitable suffix is chosen when initializing the  
dialogue.)

This is quite isolated functionality, so I should not be very cumbersome  
to clone trunk and send me a request to pull the modified  
settingsdialog.{h,cpp} from your branch. Anybody feeling like it?

Best regards, Adam.
