--- Comment #1 from Jeff Fortin Tam <nekohayo at gmail.com> ---
One thing that came to my mind afterwards: if shrinking the other widgets (i.e.
the 5 listviews in the upper part, when expanding the extra options widgets in
the lower part) is considered problematic compared to the current shapeshifting
dialog, maybe a different UI widgets approach can be considered for those
expanders: using the equivalent of a popover* widget to contain them, and show
the popover by clicking some buttons instead of expanders; that way the extra
settings would be temporarily overlaid on top of the rest of the dialog,
without resizing involved.
