#1579: Preferences dialog is too small and can't be resized, causing the sound
events list under "sounds" to be unusable

 As can be seen in the screenshot attached, the sound events list only
 shows one item and a bit, and even the scroll bar is not much of use (one
 sweep of the mouse scroll wheel gets you to the bottom, skipping
 everything).

 It could be massively improved by allowing the dialog to be resized, as
 right now the only way to reasonable get to an event you want to change is
 to select the first one and use the keyboard down arrow to examine each
 and every one of the events in the list. IMHO the best solution would be
 to have the dialog large enough in the first place (and possibly also
 resizeable).
