No that wont do, I have a simillar problem here. I generate a UI for plugins. 
The UI consists of a scrollarbe windows with a table-layout inside. The table 
has label + widget per row. The number of row can be anything from 1 to say 
1000. Therefore the scrollable windows is needed if the height of the window 
would exceed the screen height. Anyway if it does not, I'd prefer to make the 
window as tall as possible to show the entries without needing to scroll.

I am not be able to achive this yet.
