I agree that we _should not_ increase the panel size. We already have
48 pixels taken up by panel - which is loads.

If someone can show that we have a usability issue with the panels, or
that small panels are intrinsically less aesthetically pleasing then I
might change my opinion.

Until,things like the status bar, for example, work better with a
wider panel, we have to stay at 24px too.
