Good point! 

* Dialogs should not be bigger than two thirds of the screen size and should 
always be resizable. Take care about high resolution displays (i.e. QXGA and 
more).

Personally, I wouldn't like 2/3 of screen size for dialogs. I resize it always 
to about 1/4. So it might be a good advice to:

* Save and restore user adjustments of dialog size.
