(1) Toggle the tool bar off.  Does the overall frame height shrink or stay the same?

A:  Starting from Emacs -Q.  Using the mouse to toggle the toolbar off, the height of the frame shrinks -- i.e., top and left remain the same, and the bottom shrinks upward about one-half the height of the toolbar that disappears.  The minibuffer / echo area increases in size to about 3 lines of text, with just one line of text that reads:  "menu-bar options showhide showhide-tool-bar".

(2) Toggle the tool bar on again.  Does the overall frame height increase or stay the same?

A:  The frame height quickly shrinks and expands, but ultimately remains the same size -- i.e., slightly less than when Emacs -Q first began its GUI session.

(3) Evaluate (setq frame-inhibit-implied-resize t) and repeat steps (1) and (2).

A:  Starting again from Emacs -Q.  Evaluate `(setq frame-inhibit-implied-resize t)`.  Step 1 looks the same as previously reported.  Step 2 looks the same as previously reported.  I did not see any visual difference between this test and prior test mentioned above.
