This is a special case that is a matter of interface guidelines in
action. The sizer for the buttons is not a regular sizer, but a
wx.StdDialogButtonSizer. It is supposed to determine the position of
the OK/Cancel buttons in a platform-independent way to conform with
each platform's standards. If you had used a standard dDialog class
and added the buttons manually using dSizer, that would have indeed
been the correct code.

Every control that has an associated piece of identifying text has a
'Caption' property. This is done to make Dabo much more consistent
than the way that wxPython does things, which could involve a call to
SetTitle(), SetCaption(), or SetText(). So for a frame ('form' in
Dabo-speak), you could do it one of two ways: in the constructor
call, or with an object reference. These two do the same thing:
frm = dabo.ui.dForm(None, Caption="Foo")
- or, given a 'frm' reference:
frm.Caption = "Foo"
