Dear Maintainer,

As updates take some time, I have the habit to display the details of the downloads to follow the activity, and to widen the window to see more things. When I do this, there are 2 things that I think could be better:
 - the top progressbar area is gaining area from the window expand, which I believe is not what would be expected as the point in widening the window is to extend the informative area (the list of files being downloaded)
 - the column showing the mini progressbar in the list of files tends to shrink (sometimes a little bit, sometimes not, sometimes even disapearing), which makes it loose its purpose

May I expect some fixes there someday?

Regards,
Christophe
