There's other issues as well, but this one makes the structure page completely unusable since the size of the table is not adjustable.

Ouch. Useless-UI indeed. Hopefully simple to fix, just let the table auto-expand to the available space in the resizable dialog, and have a scrollbar when it overflows.

Alex, this hidden gem of useless-ui might be simple to fix. Key structure of complex keys cannot be inspected as we truncate the table. Table should auto-expand into the available space (dialog is resizable), and have a vertical scrollbar when it cannot. Adjacent Certifications tab on same dialog has the correct behaviour. Could you assign someone?

Screenshot 1, attachment 9331824 [details], shows table truncation.
Screenshot 2, attachment 9331920 [details], shows missing auto-expand.

Btw, Certifications Tab on same dialog has correct behaviour, so we might be able to copy from there.
