The current state is based on last year GSoC project and I usually hear
positive feedback about it. Most people really don't need the options,
so choosing the format is the only thing they want to care about.

Of course advanced options could be hidden by some other mean, but I
don't think tabs really fit this case, because you would have to change
number of tabs based on selection of format and I think this would be
unintuitive.
