Dev:Ref/Proposals/UI/Increase whitespace

Increase whitespace in the UI

Considerations

• One of the reasons why Blender is considered hard, or having a complex UI is because there is very little space between widgets and panels. This makes panels look busy and cluttered.
• Experienced users can also benefit from more whitespace by finding things quicker due to visual grouping.
• More whitespace means more scrolling
• Some users might want to scroll less, or just like the old look

Proposal by Januz

---

• Hand control over the gutter for splits, rows and panels to themes.
• Decide on sensible values for the default theme (needs to be discussed)
