OK, set my pan-main-window kwin window rule so it didn't apply (set the 
window role to "pan panxxxxx", confirmed I could resize pan horizontally 
(which I couldn't do if the rule applied, since it forces pan to 
horizontally maximized) and played around with restarting (my binary 
instance of) pan.

No matter if I started with pan opening to that post as that's where I 
was when I left it, or opening to another post and clicking that post, 
and no matter if I had pan set to size-to-fit images or not...

I still couldn't get pan to misbehave with that post.

Yes, it's larger than my desktop width (1920 px "full hd"), as from the 
scrollbars when I have the image full-sized, it's about 2000 px wide.

And yes, the message-id matches the one you pointed me at, 559...


Meanwhile, it may be of interest that the image is about 2000 px wide, 
yet you said pan was resizing to about 3000 px wide.  I don't know what 
your pan layout is, but do you happen to have one of the other panes, say 
the group list, covering that ~1000 px gap?  Does pan resize to the same 
width if you change that, say, switching to tabbed layout instead of 
paned, if you do, or changing the layout so there's something else beside 
the body pane, if you don't?

If the body pane itself is that full 3000 px, it suggests that something 
other than the image might be triggering it.  Does changing the font pan 
uses for the body pane change the width it resizes to?

And you didn't ever directly answer (maybe you're still absorbing? =:^), 
does toggling the resize-to-fit option (in the menu, so it's the behavior 
when you load the post) change the window resize behavior at all?

Also, current git-pan, a 0.140 pre-release snapshot, 0.139 release, or 
older, and distro-built or self-built?

FWIW, here, git-pan self-built against gtk2 (using an ebuild based on the 
live-git-pan ebuild that used to be in the gentoo tree).  You can see the 
git-commit in my headers since I post with pan.  Library versions of 
interest:

glib-2.44.1
gmime-2.6.20
gdk-pixbuf-2.30.8
