wxGUI: Add command layer becomes unusable

Description ¶
Hi,
the "Add command layer" option is mostly unusable on Wingrass since you can't see what you're typing, and becomes oddly placed to the right of the other layer's preferences button on all platforms after you add a regular map layer.
see attached screenshots.
also I notice if I add a "--ui" or "--help" term to the command layer they silently get stripped off instead of acting as expected; and if I add a non-image creating module command is used there (like r.mapcalc) it seems to be ignored, limiting the kind of imaginative light scripting you can do with it.
finally, if you press the Del key while editing text in that line, it deletes they layer line and everything you just carefully typed in. :-(
thanks, Hamish

see #1239, I thought I had fixed the first point already, the second one cannot be fixed easily
see attached screenshots.

what is 'acting as expected'?

I am not going to fix any of these issues now for 6.4.3.
