Make Stylesheet Text Box Larger

Title:
Make Stylesheet Text Box Larger

Area:
styles

Summary:
http://www.dreamwidth.org/customize/options?group=customcss

The custom style sheet box would be much easier to write complex css in if it was wider. It's aligned to match up to the checkbox and textarea above, but it just looks like it is wasting space. There are many times when I feel like having to wrap my CSS around on several lines makes it harder for me to work in that box when I want to adjust things.

Description:
(See Summary)

It'd be exponentially helpful if it was as wide as the area the textbox sits in.

Bonus Suggestion:
"Use embedded CSS
If you'd like to add custom CSS to this style, enter it here."

That phrase should probably be aligned to the top of that box so that it's not placed below the large text box.

It fits just right in 800x600 but there seems to be some wasted space in bigger resolutions so if it could be made flexible that would be nice indeed.

If the size is set any bigger, it'll force a side scroll for me, and I *can't* make my window any larger. So I'm voting not enlarging it.

However if making it bigger was done via using a percentage of available space, then I'd approve of it. Just don't hard-code the size in em or px, and it won't overstretch windows.

Definitely agree :)
