Bug description:
  gnome-disk-utility does not fit netbook screen. the window height is
  much more than 576px which basically make the app unusable on a
  netbook screen. The attached patch works fine as its already working
  in Meego and also its attached to the upstream bug report but there
  has been no activity from the upstream developers for more than
  9months.

  Moreover, when the window is "maximized", it is impossible to click on
  the parts of it that are visible. As the user moves the mouse and
  clicks, the window position keeps changing.

  Worse, the window somehow decides to maximize itself.
  This prevents the possible workaround of moving it with Alt+Mouse, rendering 
the GUI definitely impossible to use.
  (When the user selects a filesystem mounted on the top of a cryptsetup 
mapper, whose path /dev/mapper/........... is too long, the window pops to 
maximized state by itself.)

  TEST CASE: start gnome disk-utility on a netbook with 600px vertical
  pixels, click on the name of your hardrive. gdu window will do some
  weired things as it dont fit on the screen so basically becomes
  unusable.
