I don't see this.  If anything, its gtk adjusting for the size of the
text on the "Update search path" page.  Not something to worry about.

There's no explicit statement about this in the HIG, but the one example
druid page they show only capitalizes the first letter.  Most of the
other windows in that section of the document also use this same
capitalization scheme.  I've updated the druid so all the titles use
this same format.

Have to think about this one.

I only put the statement into the text when you ask gnucash to run the
script.  It doesn't matter to the user whether or not the script is in
their path as they can always type the full path name.  To
programmatically execute the script, it needs to either be in the search
path or the full path name of the script has to be embedded into the
executable.  I was trying to avoid the latter.
