So far at least, this isn't possible.
This is one case (the other one is automatically sizing popup boxes) where it would be
good to have a widget able to suggest an optimal size for itself. The main reason this
could be tricky is that the layout engine has no distinction between the space the
widget wants to occupy and the space available to the widget.
