Hi Per.  I recognize your name from my FreeBSD days of yore :)

I certainly have seen the stupidly-wide body pane many times before, and
for a very long time. (Way before Heinrich kindly volunteered to be the
pan maintainer, BTW.)

AFAICT the wide-body problem occurs only when I'm viewing a binary article
with a jpeg attachment, *and* the jpeg has an unusually tall format, i.e.
the vertical size is at least two, maybe three times or more, the width of
the image.

You may well ask why a very *tall* image should change the *width* of a
pan window.  I hope you are asking yourself that question because I'd
like to know the answer :)
