Public bug reported:

Description: Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS
Release: 14.04
Package: emacs24
Version: 24.3+1-2ubuntu1
Package: kde-window-manager
Version: 4:4.11.11-0ubuntu0.2
I opened an emacs window and maximized it vertically. I then switched
repeatedly between a "Customize Option" buffer and the *scratch* buffer.
Every buffer switch caused the window to shrink slightly by moving the
lower edge up. This continued until the window only contains only 2
lines of each buffer. No doubt the window manager is involved; I am
using kwin (version above).
The output of "xwininfo -id 0x3000112" below shows the problem. Note
that the height and corners fields change every time, but geometry
changes every other time.

I would expect one of two behaviours. Option 1 would be to swap between
two different window sizes, each containing the maximum number of lines
for that buffer. Option 2 would be to keep the lower edge of the window
at the bottom of the screen and absorb the difference in height by
changing the size of some internal padding. Option 1 would be more
consistent with the current resize behaviour.
This problem seems to be due to the change in height of the toolbar. If
I disable the toolbar (menu-bar-showhide-tool-bar-menu-customize-
disable), the problem goes away. If I put the toolbar on the left side
or right size and maximize the window fully, the window shrinks
horizontally instead of vertically.
