the Applets-with-extenders shown in the mockup are flawed: they do not have the same divider between the items (e.g. Grab and Grab 2) that they do in the dialogs. moreover, i don't think it is up to the Extender to get its presentation in the applet correct *at all*. it is up to the Applet that is hosting it. if the applet will contain only the extenders, then it draws the background accordingly and sets the margins accordingly as well. if the applet will contain more than just the extenders then it won't. this changes the problem from "how do we make it possible for Extender to paint itself perfectly in an Applet container generically" to "how do we make it easy for an Applet to embed an Extender directly into its layout and have a nice result". for now, i'd be just fine with skipping that issue altogether until we have some actual real world examples of this in action beyond the custom internal extender applet, where we can afford to invest a bit of custom effort (e.g. setting the margins and what not "by hand" in the applet) -- Aaron J.
