And it's a shame you don't make the bsCommandLink and bsSplitButton styles more usable in pre-Vista (losing the CommandLinkHint and the split indicator, respectively).

But since you've got something approximating command-link buttons in pre-Vista, will you have some sort of task dialog component (and/or functions in Dialogs.pas) that works in pre-Vista?
