Text and radio buttons aligned left, dialog buttons aligned right.
Warning/Question/Info icon to the left.

Ususally I try to follow the gnome HCI guidelines regarding button
order:

        <Other>  <Cancel>  <Default>

And I try to avoid Yes/No dialogs. But in this case I couldn't find a
proper wording for the buttons, especially since the dialog is being
used in more situations. Usualy I would put in <Delete> instead of
<Yes>.
