Apparently for Gtk+ users the height changes but the number of visible
lines remains the same when toggling `tool-bar-mode'.  For native
toolbar users the height remains the same and the number of visible
lines changes.  I reported this only to explain the behavior of Emacs
with native toolbars as seen here.

If I had two Emacs frames aligned one above the other I probably would
mind if one of them changed size without being asked to do so.  But I
can't really tell because I don't use toolbars and never count the
number of lines of frames - my Emcas always runs full screen.
