[IDV #YPU-415017]: IDV v2.9u2 (Mac OS X): Bug in Data Choosers subwindow resizing?

Hi Dave.

Many thanks for your generous insights and we certainly hope you will continue 
operating in the mode you describe below. The IDV & Unidata team greatly 
appreciate the discovery and reporting of these problems by our user community 
(i.e. crowd-sourcing bug discovery.)

We will put these problems on the todo list and address them as quickly as 
possible given limited time and resources.

Thanks again for your conscientious efforts!

-Julien
