  That's a separate bug that's irrelevant to this issue. We should fix that. If you \
can test (I don't have a 4K screen), I can submit a patch.

  Can you outline the use case for having a large screen but wanting to resize the \
System Settings window to be so small that many KCMs become borderline unusable? We \
do save the user-specified size; this patch only prevents users with large screens \
from making the window so small that usability suffers.
