Yes. The GtkWindow should not be limited to the contents at all, thats what I 
want.

An interesting idea... I might have a look at the implementation details of the 
scrollable area widget.

I'm currently reading through gdkevents-win32.c in an attempt to find where it 
enforces the minimum window size. I was hoping that somewhere in the WM_SIZING 
handler it would get the current allocation and set the RECT pointed to by 
lParam to that size. Or something like that, but so far I haven't got my head 
around it.

Or maybe it's happening in WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGING?

GDK_NOTE is just debugging right?
