Why not force a 1px margin to the left as well?

Heh, if you had continued reading the second paragraph of that post you'd see that the problem with this is it sort of screws up scrolling:

When the text starts scrolling it wont disappear behind the left edge of the screen or behind the scrollbar, it'll disappear 1 pixel away from it.

Apparently some feel this is ok but I think others (including myself) would be bothered by it...

oops, I did read that too. I personally wouldn't have a problem with the forced left margin, but would be satisfied either way. Now If I can only figure out how to compile patches (not a question).

That looks nice at the first glance. But there are so many menu items in RB that I'd rather had one line per item. This way I'll find the desired item faster.
Another possibility: make menu display mode an option (with/without current value).

Latest update:
* Removed the 1px right margin for now, probably won't add the margins again until I've figured out a better way to do this.
* Added a Boolean Quick Toggle option: when enabled selecting a boolean setting toggles the value instead of entering edit mode.
* Converted all of General Settings. (well almost all, anything still left as ordinary menus was done so intentionally)
TODO now: Lots of testing on different targets...

Well, that IS the way it's done for now, you have the following options:
* Don't display values in menus, one line per setting (like the current unpatched rockbox)
* Display value only for the selected setting, one line per setting
* Display values for all settings, one line per setting
* Display values for all settings, two lines per setting
