Apologies for being pedantic here, but I'm trying to make a distinction between
the fee category field and the fee amount field.  The fee category field should
always be visible, but initially, the fee amount field is hidden.  This field
is not shown because a fee is not mandatory.  However, if the fee category
field is selected, the fee amount field is now shown.  That should happen
automatically, without any need to resize.

As above, to which fee field do you refer?  The category, or the amount?

I can quite definitely enter an Int Inc transaction including a fee amount,
which I can save correctly and re-open and change to Dividend, resave, and
still the correct fee amount is present.

@ Devs also, please.
As previously indicated, I have submitted a patch for the dividend fee problem,
(part of https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/109043/diff/2/#2) but it has not yet
been reviewed.  There is also a follow-on issue of how an update to git HEAD
gets into the Windows release.
