I suggest to fix the size of the window buttons to a certain width, so that they don't resize when the title of the window is changing because this behaviour is very annoying. For example when I open a URL in irssi, it first opens a new tab in Firefox, which has the title "Untitled", now when I try to click on the Firefox button to see the website I was going to, it often happens that the site loads and the tab is changing title causing all the buttons in the bottom panel to resize so that I miss the Firefox button and click another window by accident.

The window buttons should only resize if there is not enough space left on the panel for the button of a newly created window.
