Title:
  GDM facebrowser grows unusually wide on large screens

Status in GDM: The Gnome Display Manager:
  Invalid
Status in “gdm” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  On my 1920x1080 display, the GDM facebrowser appears to occupy 1/3 of
  the screen (nearly 700px). The facebrowser should use a fixed width
  allocation (I'm guessing something in the neighborhood of 500px but
  I'll defer to someone more visually inclined) because when username
  and password fields are given more than 4x the amount of space they
  need, the experience seems accidental.
