get_size_request returns -1, -1. 
Docs say it should return the size that was explicitly set using
set_size_request ... so it's not what I need ? or am I missing something
here ?

I tried gtk_widget_size_request, it sort of work but there are still
some problems.
- The window height is 4 pixels bigger when showed (seem something due
to the statusbar but I'm really not sure what.
- It's impossible to calculate the window width because the toolbar has
it's own width requisition. So I need to assume it's 0 ... This breaks
if the toolbar orientation is vertical or if you have a sidebar showed.

This thing is getting me crazy ... :)

Thanks for your help.
