Comment(by bernmeister):

 I've done GUI design/implementation before and I'd like to put my 2 cents
 in.  Using Pidgin 2.5.8 on Ubuntu 9.04:

 1) The dialog IS resizable and it looks like the "right" height.

 2) The list of custom statuses always has a scroll bar - I guess it's hard
 for the GUI to work out how much space to give to the list of statuses and
 how much space to give to the text area above it.  I don't think it's all
 that bad.

 3) Message input box size - The size for me is 4 lines which I would say
 is large enough.  If you add more lines, a scrollbar does appear.
