If you just don't set the GTK_EXPAND y-flag when inserting into
the table, it should stay the same size when you resize the
table. You can control the initial allocation with 

 gtk_widget_set_usize (text, -1, 30 /* size in pixels */)

It would be nice if this could be done in lines, instead of
pixels... (A gtk_text_set_min_heigh_lines() would be fairly
easy to add)
