 I've been noticing an odd issue involving the media preferences window
 when navigating through it. When switching through the available options
 and tabs, the height of the window will begin to increase; in some cases
 by small increments, in other cases, large onces. This may not sound like
 much of an issue, but you can't resize the window once it's started
 resizing itself. I've noticed that closing and then reopening the window
 allows you to reduce the height by roughly one centimeter, and if you
 spend at least ten minutes doing this non-stop, you will be able to reduce
 the window to its original size. Alternatively, I've also noticed that if
 you begin to randomly click around the window's options, it will
 (eventually) stop resizing on its own and allow you to resize it to
 whatever height you wish.

 The title is also correct in that the window's managed to stretch itself
 to roughly one yard in height. Don't ask.

 This issue has been occuring on Haiku R1, Alpha 2 and Revision 38153. This
 has also been happening on essentially every revision in between.
