Subject: bug#18794: 24.4; python mode eldoc unnecessarily resizes echo area
Date: Wed, 22 Oct 2014 11:42:54 -0300

The documentation shown is just one line, but the echo area is resized
to a height of two chars, so a line is wasted and the size of the echo
area is changing back and forth every time the point moves. Maybe there
is a trailing newline wanting to be stripped out for good. Forcing eldoc
to never resize the echo area would not be a nice solution.
