There's no intrinsic size limit, it's a question of development cycle.
For views and functions, you have a classic edit/compile/debug cycle,
which isn' supported by the property dialogs (and IMHO is beyond their
scope).

No, must be modal to prevent users to mess around with the parent of the
popup window (e.g. closing it, or changing the language)

Magic? :-)

I don't know these criticisms in detail, but I find some pgadmin2
dialogs ugly too (which originates mostly from the VB controls). IMHO,
the appearance of pgAdmin3 is good, except for the main toolbar which is
too big (and instead of fixing wxWindow's separators size I'd rather
like the bitmaps in 16x16).
