Yes, more or less what I had in mind. On my Windows machines,
though, I have to add "fudge factors" of 26 in the Y direction
and 6 in the X direction to make the window "stick" to the
size I set it to. The fudge factors correspond, roughly,
to the vertical size of the title bar, and the extra
horizontal padding size of base widgets, although when I
try to take all this into account programmatically, I
STILL end up with fudge factors I can't explain.

But, sometimes, "close enough" is close enough, and I could
probably live with this solution if I could just train myself
to overshoot by a little bit. :-)

Cheers,

David
