Subject: t/scrolledOptional.t fails if screen resolution too low/DPI too high
I managed to get t/scrolledOptional.t to fail on debian 9 testing using a screen resolution of 1280x800 and DPI (pixel density) set to 120. It seems that $top->geometry() will not resize the window to greater than what will fit on screen; in this case there are too many rows to all fit onscreen, so the scrollbars persist rather than hide, failing the test.

If this is deemed important enough to resolve, then one approach might be to simply reduce the amount of text in the test so that it's more likely to finish.

should say Debian 10 testing (i.e. buster)
