Perhaps for a desktop system with a decent size display.  I don't find
it all that obscure for a small laptop.  I think the only reason I've
never seen this issue before is because I typically use "emacsclient
-c".

But if fixing Dan's scenario is likely to introduce a regression for
some other scenario, well, I understand.  Sometimes it's better for
users to develop a workaround for a known bug than it is to keep
introducing new bugs.

cheers,
mike
