You're right, it's just a coincidence it worked for that size accessory.
If I make the accessory taller, it still fails.  I'll just have to rewrite
my opentool to not use an accessory for the input fields.

No matter what we think of Linux versus FreeBSD, etc., the one thing I
really like about Linux is that it has Microsoft worried.  Anything
that kicks a monopoly in the pants has got to be good for something.
