I guess this is an issue with the prompt service?  DevTools is just calling confirmEx[1] to show this prompt, so we don't have any control over the sizing.

This isn't a localization issue, AFAICT, back to toolkit. My suspicion is that the sizeToContent fails, but I have no idea why, and if that's actually the case.

I don't find any getters for localized heights on the way, though.
