  14. Well, since you can't *prevent* it from happening, you could just deal with
  15. it in some simple-yet-straightforward way. For example, if it's too small,
  16. don't display any content, just some text: "This frame is too small to
  17. display..." and a button ("Enlarge") which does a RequestFrameShape.
