Hi Antonione --

this is a nice start.  A couple of suggestions

* you may want to use a gtk.Table for your label/entry pairs in your
dialog editor.  Everything will line up much more nicely

* you should not explicitly require pygtk 2.0.  Noone is using pygtk1
anymore and this will cause some pygth2 installations to fail (like
mine!)

* you may want to look at the line editor dialog in backend_gtk.py for
inspiration. This uses drop down menus for linestyles, color dialog
boxes to pick colors, etc...  I'll paste in the code below

Thanks,
JDH
