-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Many wizard pages inherited from AbstractOpenShiftWizardPage, in doCreateControls method have first line like
{code}
	GridLayoutFactory.fillDefaults().margins(10, 10).applyTo(parent);
{code}
that sets margin 10 (default is 5) in most pages, in some 6, in some 1. Evidently, it looks differently on different OS. I do see on the screenshot attached that margins are too large, but when I look at the same page in my Ubuntu, it does not causes that feeling, though comparing to other Eclipse wizards, the margin is larger. So, if adjusted to look perfect on one OS, it can look worse on another. Then, could it be better just to stick to default 5 for margin in all wizards?
