It seems that when in hrev49481 BAlert made its transition to layout API it has also changed the way alert windows look. Would it be possible to make them tidy again?

Old look: New look:

Note that Sceenshot doesn't capture window borders of alert windows -- #11368.

I don't agree with this, actually. This is why I made it the way it was. Why should it use different spacing than what is used everywhere else?

Alerts are very small anyway, so there is no reason to make them that crowded. I'd like to see that reverted or at least come up with an argument why it should use that spacing other than "that is how it used to look".

It would be nice though to give the buttons an identical width again, which looks nicer IMO. Having them generally a bit wider is not bad as well (like in the old version), it makes them easier click targets.

Keeping the text top-aligned with the icon as in the "old" look looks better to me. I don't mind some extra spacing, however.
