Yesterday I found a way to do almost what I want.  After each hide or show 
operation, calling the reshow_with_initial_size() method on the top-level
window resizes it properly.  Unfortunately, it also had a tendency to
move the window around, 

resize(1, 1) on the top-level window is better and seems to work even
without declaring any fixed sizes for the child widgets.  That was the
magic I needed.

The reason I'm doing this, byy the way, is that I want the test client to be
usable on displays of limited size.
