The EditPeak popup is quite old and it is not surprising that it needs
attention. This popup is only supposed to work on individual peaks and
thus doesn't affect the display of a whole peak list.
Working with Hz is a more global issue and is something that can readily
be looked at after the Ambleside conference. It is not difficult, just
fiddly.
