Probably tabbed dialogs. They crash(ed?) when downsized to
a size where the tabs didn't fit anymore within the window.
I believe this is still a problem; since we still have,
for example in FormAboutlyx.C:
FormAboutlyx::FormAboutlyx(Dialog & parent)
: base_class(parent, _("About LyX"), false)
where 'false' blocks any resizing of this tabbed dialog window.
Removing the boolean (it then defaults to 'true'), will allow
to make the dialog larger than default size, NOT smaller!

Vaguely I remember that Angus once mentioned something like this.
It was too specialized C++ coding for me to comprehend, so I may
have misunderstood. But Angus may know much more about this issue
and whether there is an easy solution. Angus, do you?
