And Vasco points out that we _can't_ set a maximum size of the mapview
at the GUI level.  There is no way to do it in GTK other than catching
the resize and reverting it - very ugly.  An alternative might be to let
the mapview widget continue to grow but to limit the size of the
mapview_canvas (the struct in mapview_common.h).  This is possible but
also ugly.
