Hi,

I'm not sure this is really ucf's fault, it may need support
from debconf to do better.

When ucf shows a conffile prompt on upgrade and the user is using
the gtk/gnome frontend, if they select side-by-side diff what
they are shown is almost unreadable.

It appears as if the spacing between the two columns is collapsed
to a single space, and as such you don't get this nice visual
structure of an sdiff.

It would be great if this could be presented better in these
circumstances somehow.

Thanks,

James
