Please could you test it and I will then upload the change for a review and 
hopefully get it merged :)

Sadly I don't think that's the case as the upstream has moved on to
building yet another UI layer to replace the one that we are currently
using [0].

I hacked the heck out of the CSS to make things fit in my ~1024px
preferred browser width [1]. There is a greasemonkey script that will
apply this css [2]. Perhaps some other folks could test this css out
and see if I would be a useful change to add to the stylesheet
overrides already in use by the WMF's deployment.
