With gtk+ apps, when they get launched the ask for a resize. If in tablet/phone mode unity8 will deny/ignore it, but gtk thinks the resize was successful and renders as if its window had the size it requested (that's with the qtmir and unity8 branches attached to this bug)

As if launched in desktop mode. Comments: Leaving staged mode and going back into it again gets the application to resize correctly and fill the entire stage area. Going from desktop to staged mode while the desktop application is already running also works fine.
