Summary: Expand dialogs when showing code

Initial Comment:
So, with recent versions dialogs are correclty sized by default, which is great. But if you click on the "Code" button, you still only see one line of the multi-line entry (and that line is blank). The dialog should really resize to something reasonable, I suggest the dialog expands to the bottom of the screen in all cases, since people clicking on "Code" probably want to read that code correctly (even if it hides the main window). Clicking on "Code" again should resize the window to the original size.

(I think I read in planet.gnome.org recently that all common window managers force the window height to the screen size if you ask for something too big, so you probably can just request 1000px or so.)
