[tor-talk] Will enabling extensions.torbutton.resize_windows; true have a downside?

In TBB 6.08, there's a torbutton pref in about:config - "extensions.torbutton.resize_windows" = false, by default. I understand it's enabled in TBB 6.5a (maybe not). The resizing of my screen height in 6.08 is sketchy. But if I enable the pref above, seems to make height resizing consistent
