Re: gui problem with entry edit

Played around with this a bit more with gconf-editor, but have been
unable to duplicate the bug.  I think I'll wait a bit.  If it happens
again, I'll be sure to record the window sizes etc. and see if I can
duplicate it reliably.  Then a bug could be reported somewhere.  If I
never see it again, it's probably so rare that it's not worth
bothering with, not to mention the fact that it'd be almost impossible
to diagnose without being able to reproduce it!
