Comment (by FolioVision):

 @karmatosed Thanks for sharing your concerns. The simple array of nine is
 so much clearer than anything else on the table, perhaps we should move
 ahead with the improvement so this ticket doesn't languish in another four
 years of Trac limbo (really it's been four years).For me the button by
 default showing in the middle suggests position. Tic tac toe has been
 around longer than radio buttons.

 That said, for differentiation, the round radio buttons could be turned
 square or the existing round ones could be put in a square box to suggest
 a page. Anything more and we risk building an ugly interface. Thoughts on
 square buttons or a square around the nine buttons?

 I'd love to help finish this up but that means decisions on all sides.

 My post above posed **some questions about performance** which really
 worry me. Does anybody have any thoughts on offering users performance
 warnings here?
