Subject: [PATCH] Changed beamercolorbox parameters

Changes the box parameters from:
   leftskip=0.3cm,
   rightskip=0.3cm,
   ht=2.5ex,
   dp=1.5ex

to:
   sep=1.5ex

And added a strut to ensure short characters always make a minimum box
height of 4.5 ex if there are small (e.g. -) characters in the title
only.
