Bug Description

After a number of successful downloads, Midori's window starts to widen more and more with every new download. The problem is about download "tickets" at the bottom of the window (see the screenshot attached), which show download progress. When there are too many such "tickets" to fit into the screen, Midori's window becomes wider to hold all those tickets and keep them visible.
This is usually absolutely fine, but this event takes place even in the case of maximized Midori window. In such case this is an issue, because the right edge of Midori's window disappears behind the right edge of the screen (see the screenshot). This is very inconvenient. Maybe it would be better if this list of downloads was "scrollable"? For example, if there are too many download "tickets", they would hide behind the window edge, but would still be viewable by scrolling over them.

Version 0.2.9-1~llwkt1 is still affected by this bug.
Please add an option to limit a number of download "tickets" and with zero value to switch off this feature.
