Public bug reported:
I start my thunderbird and maximize the main window. Then I open
"Account Settings". This shows the new settings window that is smaller
than the main window (see screenshot "before.png"). This is fine just
like that. But when I start moving the settings window around (by
clicking the top window bar), the main window is being resized to a very
small size, such that it is not visible behind the settings window.
Moreover, it seems to move along with the settings window. When I close
the settings, I can see the very small main window (see screenshot
"after.png").
I actually don't think this is a thunderbird problem, it is probably
something more general. I remember having a similar issue with the
LibreOffice options in Ubuntu 18.04.
