 Do I understand correctly that this means just printing out the grid as it
appears on the screen? If so, then, indeed, this task depends on the other
one as if we switch to using wxGrid instead of wxListCtrl it would make
printing it out easier.

 I was sure I already looked at this but somehow I don't remember any more
what happened. I'll try to have another look a.s.a.p.

 It shouldn't be particularly difficult to do this with wxGrid but OTOH
switching from wxListCtrl to wxDataViewCtrl should be easier (but I didn't
even look at the current code yet...). Anyhow, I guess it would make sense
to discuss this item (even) more as it looks like the most important one
from the users point of view so it'd make sense to start with it.

 Yes in the sense that it's done in a local branch of my git repository
since at least a couple of months. It still needs to be finalized
(documentation updated, retested under all platforms again, ...) and, once
again, I'll try to do this a.s.a.p. Sorry for the delay.
