Take note, though, that once you move into fixed geometry widgets, you
prevent the window from being dynamically resized to fit the user's
requirements.
The whole point of complex interwidget geometry negotiation is so that
the window can be resized by the user and still be usable.
I find using dynamic geometry far easier in the long run ... the widgets
just settle themselves into position, and I never have to worry about
where to put them at a pixel level.
