I've always felt that having the version/revision text at the bottom
center in the main menu was a bit out of place. A more common place for
this kind of thing is in one of the corners. I chose bottom right.
Aditionally I right aligned it and changed the v and r in version and
revision to capital letters.

The confirmation buttons for quitting or starting a new game were
driving me crazy by not being ok left and cancel right, as e.g. vanilla
is.
Then I noticed the text isn't the same as in vanilla either. It should
be yes/no, not ok/cancel.
To make it even more authentic I also centered the buttons. Had to
remove autosized buttons for this. I think it looks fine still.

The progress is not particularly accurate. It simply uses the current / total number of records written/read as indication. Cell records are currently the largest by far, but there is a good chance that could be optimized using a change tracking system.
Checking for emptiness using size() might be inefficient, because
it can take linear time, while empty() is guaranteed to take only
constant time.
For non-primitive types, postfix ++ operators are inefficient
compared to prefix ++ operators, because post-increment usually
involves keeping a copy of the previous value around.
The information for this code came from UESP, which in turn cites a (extremely vague) section from the TES-CS help text, so no surprise that it wasn't accurate.
The guard on the boat has a fight rating of 70, so with the old code it would attack on sight if the disposition is low enough. BTB-Character.esp includes something (not sure what) that drops his disposition to 35 when playing as a Khajiit, making him attack.
Testing in Vanilla it appears that disposition has no effect on combat engagement at all. Even with disposition 0 and fight 70 the NPCs don't attack.
Setting an NPCs fight rating to 70 or less still has a meaning, because the higher it is, the easier it becomes to raise the fight rating to 80 (by taunting, for example).
