For example, imagine it is a French ;) restaurant menu dialog. The user could choose between three different desserts, and, within each dessert, some custom items. Thus, for example, a three-flavor ice cream could command a three pop-up box to select each flavor, while a cake would have a single pop-up to choose between chocolate, coffee or vanilla. Therefore, the radio buttons would have to be unevenly spaced.

Ah, I see -- I think. You're saying that the radio buttons are aligned normally (left alignment), but are unevenly spaced vertically due to interspersed auxiliary controls for each button?

In that case, I agree that you still have proper radio button behavior, and your intended solution is the correct one.

Your original post said the buttons were in "random places", which made me imagine something like map pins. The scenario described above isn't what I would call "random" placement. :)
