Description

The GUI interface to configure the mempool is overflowing the screen on my test system.

It needs rethinking, or at least a scrollbar. Simply swapping the tab QWidget for a QScrollView doesn't seem to work (maybe with some more effort?).

Might be nice to categorize options and have them in expandable sections. It looks like Qt Designer does this with a QTreeWidget.

Research direction
Explore using QScrollArea or QTreeWidget with expandable sections to organize mempool options in the GUI.
