It was 1.20.0.26, but I've compiled 1.20.0.27 right now. It seems
you've done a good job now, with the small exception (another small
exception..!) that it is not good to disable "Always show the tab bar".
Sometimes, when you open a second tab, the window size remains, and we
loose a small area from the xterm (which goes to the tab itself). Then
we close that secondary tab, and do it again and loose another small
part... The same seems to happen in xfce4-terminal.

Not an serious bug though, for now it behaves much better than before,
and I could use "Always show the tab bar" by default (though I wish I
didn't have to).

I can't quite reproduce that, although I did find the size changed when
I did something extreme like change window manager. I've been told by
the author of evilvte that all vte terminal emulators have some resizing
bugs. I can't find a way to make it behave ideally under all
circumstances; I tried all sorts of things which made the code complex
and still had flaws, so I think the current solution is the best I can
manage ie discourage users from disabling "Always show tab bar" because
although a single tab looks quite ugly (again, I've tried to make it
look better by not taking up the whole width, but this had unwanted side
effects), if you don't put up with it you're likely to have sizing
problems.

Apparently there have been some improvements in size negotiation for
GTK3, so hopefully things will be better with that, but I'll probably
have to make more changes to roxterm to be able to take full advantage
of it.
