two column quickhelp dialog, closes #3895...
two column quickhelp dialog, closes #3895 now that quickhelp is a modal dialog, it makes sense to have it be wider and have the shortcuts take up two columns, instead of one. This change makes that possible. See the results here: ![new quickhelp css](http://i.imgur.com/nvRTFJm.png)
