We might explore this solution, a "per-applet size setting", but implemented as
a sizing handle on the panel edit mode (not as a specific configuration the
applet has to provide).  If only, some properties or hints would be required
for the applets to "opt-in". That would be similar to what we do now with
applet pop-ups resizing. 

It would act as a Layout.Preferred/Maximum size, and potentially also solve the
sizing problem with two full-width competing widgets on the same panel (ex.
Menubar + Taskmanager).

Ideally it should be useful but not overwhelming, that is, defaults should
still suffice for the majority of the cases.
