Yes, but there is so much space wasted and widening it even further creates the problem that all other widgets won't properly fit anywhere anymore unless I put the ddns widget at the top. And if I go to a smaller screen it'd break the layout even more.

There are some other possible improvements to the general GUI layout that I take this opportunity to propose:
1) Move the tab header into the top row, along with the "edit GUI" button. That will remove the entire tab height which is more or less just blank space.
2) Move the footer into the left column, since that seldom contains more than fits on a screen, and frees up the entire footer height in the main view.
3) Make the title of the "Firewall States" widget editable, or change it to something that fits in one column, like "States". This is not terribly important though.
4) Change the FW rule display into a horizontal bar graph like the thermal/sensors widget. That way the text can be inside the graph and not overlap. It'd need to have some form of color inversion / XOR to remain readable though, look at Zone 0 for how it should not end up being like. :)
