Title:
  Accounts creation window is unnaturally shaped

Status in Gwibber:
  Confirmed
Status in Me Menu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  See attached screenshot of the Social Account window (as invoked from
  the Me Menu).  When first invoked the size seems unnatural and
  awkward.

  The size seems to be driven by the size of the fields that appear once
  you select a social network, but if you look at each of the options
  (Flickr, etc) none seem to actually require that width.  The longest
  fields are login IDs and passwords (see second screenshot), but that's
  an awfully wide field for that sort of data.  Many networks have a
  right-aligned "message colour" that may be driving things to the
  right, but it's unclear why that one field is right-aligned when all
  the others are left-aligned (nor is it clear why it needs such a long
  bar of colour).

  Overall it seems the layout of this window could be improved,
  resulting in a window that is more visually balanced (and probably
  smaller).
