Put a menu item containing a piece of hglue(fil, 0, fil) before the right-adjusted items.
By making the natural size infinite, you force the box to shrink this glue
instead of stretching the glue at the end of the menu bar.

The problem is that picks go through the margins and frames.
Try putting a primitive target behind the dialog to catch all picks,
e.g.,
layout->back(
kit->inset_frame(...),
new Target(nil, TargetPrimitiveHit)
)
