Ah.

The dialog *has no scroll bar* like other things which have off-screen content,
so it is not obvious that there is anything more to see; and the OS provides no
border or resize handles/corner indicator because it is a modal pop-up.

Why not make pop-ups always large enough to hold all their content?

The limitation is available screen size, which "in general" could be quite
small, for example in a Virtual Machine the user can make the virtual desktop
any size. 

Currently LO's pop-ups and menus are not usable if the screen is too small to
contain all their content.   The exception is in Writer where tool-bar
drop-downs now auto-cascade very nicely according to how wide the LO window is.
 However the primary menus (File, Edit, ... Tools, ...) don't work that way; in
particular the bottom items in the "Tools" menu are inaccessible if the screen
is too short to allow the whole menu to be seen at once.
