a similar problem exists in the horizontal domain: i have the clock applet on the lower right. if you hover the mouse over the time string below a location, the "set" button appears. if the time string is too wide, the appearance of this button will resize the whole applet window. in my case it adds a few pixels to the right... in nirvana, because it sits on the right edge of the desktop.
what makes matters worse: the window cant be moved at all.
the screenshot depicts the situation after the set button appears.
