           Summary: Windows are not sized considering the window Title
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: cmoraes.dev at gmail.com


Version:            (using KDE 4.3.2)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

I've noticed that a few windows that are displayed are sized for the contents
of the windows only, without taking window title into consideration.  If the
window title is longer that the contents, the title is hidden.  

A user must resize the window to read the window title completely.  I would
like to suggest that when the window size is being determined, in addition to
the contents of the window, the title is also taken into consideration, and
sized so that the title does not get hidden.  This is so long as there is
screen realestate available to display the window.

I noticed this behaviour when installing KDE as well as when using
applications.  

Examples:
1. During installation some of the windows that popup exhibit this problem
2. Amarok downloaded required codecs, and when done poped up a window saying
"Successfully installed.".  The window was sized only for the label
"Successfully installed.".  The window title was hidden.
