Hi Eric- I'm not seeing why a DockPanel or a VerticalPanel won't do what you ask. If you don't set a fixed size for the panel's cells it should readjust whenever the content in those cells change.
It sounds like you want the "center" panel to take up the remaining space of the window? If that's the case it can be done, but generally heights are tricky to specify in browsers. Good luck.
