Bug Description

Currently, the right-most button in the configuration window (Close), works as a Cancel button, meaning clicking it disregards changes you made to the configuration. Users mostly expect the right-most button to work as applying their changes and closing the window (as defined in the GNOME HIG). It would be nice if the window could be made an Explicit Apply Window [1], i.e. by adding an "OK" button to the right and renaming "Close" to "Cancel".
