Comment (by kdorff):

 Replying to [comment:38 seanegan]:
 >.. you must think that for some reason it requires empty, blank lines of
 whitespace. Why?

 Conversely, you suggest we shouldn't WANT empty blank lines of whitespace.
 I appreciate that I can just click on the window and start type (that is
 great and I did NOT know that, thanks for letting me know). Some of us
 white-space fetishists like it there. It makes us feel warm and fuzzy and
 the proportion may feel more balanced when we can set it. I like my meat
 up front of the plat and my veggies in the back, but you may mush them all
 together. Some people freak out when their food touches. I really loved
 the ability to set the size of the thing to what felt right for me. In 2.4
 the window looks wrong and the "growing" seems odd to me.
