A clean interface is a simple interface and a side effect
is that it scales down.  The current UI has trouble fitting in fairly
large dimension windows which are some large portion of 1440 x 900.
That's just how it is.  If it bothered me enough, I would a have filed a
bug report already.

OOo IMHO, is still best in many things.  However, for a while the
landscape on which it might be used is changing.  The linux kernel is
taking over mobile devices, in part IMHO because some years ago when so
much noise was made about scalability, Linus Torvalds made it a priority
to be able to scale *down* as well as up.  Same here for OOo.
