[Gtk-sharp-list] Making a Gtk.Entry fill vertically

It frustrates me that we can set the height of a Gtk.Entry (by the
property HeightRequest), but the height won't increase if the
available space increases.

For example, on this code:

// START

using System;
using Gtk;

class Test
{
	static void Main()
	{
		Application.Init();
		Window w = new Window("Test");
		Entry e = new Entry();
		e.HeightRequest = 200;
		w.Add(e);
		w.ShowAll();
		Application.Run();
	}

}

// END

The Entry's width will remain 200 even if I increase the height of the
window (compare if I change Entry to Button, for example). Is there a
way to override this behaviour?

Thanks
