I think I went for grid bag because I wasn't sure where I was going with the layout and thought it was the most "flexible" of all the sizers. I find it easier to use flex sizer sometimes, rather than have a hierarchy of sizers, but it really depends on the layout requirements at the end of the day. Turns out that it's not that difficult to change sizer types with wxglade so it's a good thing to start simple ;-) BTW, I haven't tried your fixes yet.
