Comment:

 > it was/is rounded properly
 So, not a fingerprinting issue.
 > code is not really using the available space as it could.
 The available space could be seen in debug log during startup, e.g.:
 {{{
 Torbutton INFO: Initializing the Torbutton button.
 Torbutton INFO: init completed
 Torbutton INFO: Window: (132,38) ?= (1920,1160)
 Torbutton DBUG: Window is normal
 }}}
 for 1920x1200 monitor. So, if you have 1080p monitor you should check how
 much space is available after XFCE takes some. And if it takes more than
 80px (<1000 available), then it's not a bug.
