No, using scrollbars would avoid resizing, but really, that's not the
point. A good interface should be simple and pretty, in accordance with
the HIG[1].

My vision of the viz is an aesthetically pleasing tool that only shows
the most relevant information. If there's a market for more hard-core
users, that don't mind a cluttered user interface, then a different
application can be developed -- it could easily reuse the widgets
developed as part of bzr-gtk.


Cheers,
Daniel
