There is an interesting paper "Graphic Design for Programmers"
that was presented at Guadec:

http://www.w3.org/2004/Talks/07-quin-guadec-typography/
(from http://2004.guadec.org/wiki/DayTwo)

A quote:
"I have seen very few windowing systems that consider proportions of
windows or dialog boxes at all.  This is unfortunate, as it?s clear that a
mixture of mismatched proportions creates needless tension and discomfort
on the part of most users."

Recommended reading!
