Is this something hard to fix? I would think not. If not, please move this from
future to something sooner. There is simply no good reason for this to be so tall.

At 800 X 600 in Linux Mandrake KDE and in OS/2, the new card window is taller
than the space between the edge of the screen and the toolbar. In W2K at 800 X
600, it is only slightly less tall than that space, and opens way below 0,0,
leaving the OK & cancel buttons offscreen by default. In OS/2, it opens each
time with the titlebar way above the top of screen. See screenshot
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=91249&action=view and bug 67913.

Simply right adjusting the currently left adjusted 'add to . . .' or the
'name,address,other' tabs would allow substantial vertical compaction without
losing [the excessive] whitespace between any entry fields.

The currently excessive whitespace means this could easily be made much shorter
than it currently is and accomodate minimum screen resolutions.
