It is quite a bit better than the last version i tried but i still have 
a bunch of things i don't like.  Don't take this too seriously of course.

- the POV-Ray output should use a fixed width font
- the automatic indention does not really work.  When 'use true tabs' is 
activated it does not at all, otherwise typing:

box {<enter>
-1, 1<enter>
}<enter>

results in:

box {
   -1, 1
   }

- the path selection tool could be so nice and load the library_path 
settings from the main povray.ini as default.
- i hate the standard qt file dialogs - the KDE ones are so much better 
to use... ;-)
- the insert menu images are displayed on the upper left of the main 
window - showing them in a separate toolbar element might be a better idea.
- the file chooser could insert the file name without the path when it 
is in the given search paths (would make scenes more portable).
