 * The text input and dropdown boxes of the Edit Project Item dialog box now extend when the dialog
   window is resized. Previously, the space between the label and the box would stretch instead,
   which isn't very useful. PR #552.
+* The document and project changed status icons on the status bar are now set to unchanged status
