Summary0012265: Optical margins setting too verbose and unintuitive
DescriptionGiven that optical margins usually are a one-off decision, the radios are too verbose in the Properties dialog.

Also, the radios are not particularly intuitive:
o None
o Both sides
o Left only
o Right only

Two separate buttons for left and right would be perfectly enough and more intuitive:
|X| Left |X| Right

The setting could then also be included into the "Advanced Settings" tab, unscattering the UI a bit.

Also, with regard to RTL, it is actually not left vs. right but begin vs. end.
TagsNo tags attached.

Note that currently, optical margins on the left side don't work at all, see Bug 0010539.

imho 'left' and 'right' should be ok for rtl and ltr…
