SWT FormLayout Made Easy Thanks To Compact Syntax In Luxor XUL

Hi,
 
  I'm currently finishing up the first version for a
compact syntax in XML to simplify the FormLayout for
the Luxor XUL Standard Widget Toolkit (SWT) Layout
package.

  Here's a first snapshot using the button example
from the "Understanding Layouts in SWT" article online
@
http://www.eclipse.org/articles/Understanding%20Layouts/Understanding%20Layouts.htm
  
    <springbox>

    <sd left="+5" right="25%">  
      <button id="b1" label="Button1" />
    </sd>

    <sd left="prev+5" right="-5">
      <button id="b2" label="Button2" />
    </sd>

    <sd top="b1+5" left="center-30" right="50%+30">
       <button id="b3" label="Button3" />
    </sd>

    <sd top="prev+5" bottom="-5" left="25%">
       <button id="b4" label="Button4" />
    </sd>

    <sd bottom="-5" left="prev+5">
       <button id="b5" label="Button5" />
    </sd>           
  
  </springbox>

  Let me know what you think. Any ideas to further
simplify the syntax are welcome.
