I'll look into implementing RequiresResize, I created an issue: http://code.google.com/p/gwt-google-apis/issues/detail?id=308
The problem with the map not refreshing properly and having to call checkResizeAndCenter() immediately after creating it has been around a long time and there is a FAQ up for it. I hope this works. Having a way to automatically compensate would take some pain out of creating maps applications!
