Assigned to davidm. David, is this our bug, or an XPToolkit problem?
toolkit although it might be my responsibility to limit the minimum size of the window.

Will be fixed when gfx scrollbars land.

You can no longer lose the right scrollbar but you can lose the bottom scrollbars if you make it too small. This is because the iframe refuses to get smaller than the height of the grippy for the side bar. You can fix this by not using a iframe for the side bar and using the newly created splitter.
Assignee: slamm → evaughan
The sidebar uses the new splitter and an overlay instead of an iframe. The horizontal scrollbar always shows, but the vertical scrollbar gets lost if the window is more narrow than the start of the combobox.

Please stop reopening this. You can squeeze the main browser window very very small and you don't lose the scrollbars. At some point the scroll arrows won't even fit. But at some point we just need to close this but. It works fine try it out.
evaughan: It's one of QA's responsibilities to re-open bugs that were marked as fixed, but were in fact unfixed. If you have any issues with our team's responsibilities, please touch base with Jan Leger.

This is technically fixed using the 1999102109 (Mac OS), 1999102208 (Win32) and 1999102208 builds, and verifying it as such. Issues remain on both Linux and Mac OS involving resizing the window to a small _height_. I'm going to break these into separate bugs.
[Broke Linux issue into bug #17092, and Mac issue into bug #17089.]
