Bug Description

The spacing and alignment of form controls in Launchpad looks wrong in many places, and is hacked to look right in many other places. The markup and CSS should be specified and implemented to fix:
* spacing between controls and labels
* horizontal and vertical spacing between related controls
* vertical spacing between unrelated controls
* horizontal alignment of form action buttons
* all of these things working even when the controls are split across table cells.

This should fix bug 74044, and fix bug 126957 in a more structured way.

There should be a demo page showing the various elements and CSS classes used.
