Replying to my own post, may be useful for others in the same situation. Looking through EoG mail archives I found some recent(ish) posts highlighting similar issues, though not exactly what I'm experiencing. The general conclusion there is that the combination of Gnome 3 in fall-back mode with Compiz may be the root cause for window size not behaving as it should. So I switched to gThumb and moved on with the project.
