Much better now, but still not complete. Not only the functionality
indices are needed but also:

 - Is the driver supplied by the manufacturer or a third party?
 - Does the driver have patent issues?
 - Support contacts and support levels for each contact
 - If the printer is color but the driver only BW an appropriate warning

An "Advanced display" button should also reveal (add to the content of
the main area, no pop-up window).

- Name of the driver
- Name of the supplier
- max. resolution
- BW/Color
- Driver type
- license name (GPL, MIT, ...)

In addition, the short description should be wrapped and not cut when it
is too long, at least in the main area.

The driver name could perhaps even be added to the standard display
instead of only to the advanced display.

The license window should have a button to switch to the original
English text if a translated text is shown. See

http://openprinting.org/show_license.cgi?driver=splix

and see also the output which you get from the OpenPrinting web API.
