Sorry for another basic qml question, but is there a way to limit a TextArea 
expansion in a docked panel? maximumLineCount doesn't seem to work and the only 
way to get scroll option for longer inputs was hardcoding the height from start 
which is not aesthetically pleasing, but at least allows one to edit the input 
after it would normally end up above screen.

Thanks in advance,
szopin
