I'd probably set a min h & w on the app to ensure all things layout nicely
there.  Fix control bars, navigation, and such in the UI and let the data
area grow if the user re-sizes the application.  I don't usually do all the
UX work though :)   Performance wise, better to use absolute positioning
where ever possible. eg a Canvas with children set at x & y locations or can
use constraints.
