The problem is that JTextArea should not be used when there is just a single
line and no scroll bar.

http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/components/textarea.html
says:
"If you need to obtain only one line of input from the user, you should use a
text field."

It seems like part of the problem is that the JTextArea gets a scrollbar and
wants more screen real estate, but the GridBagLayout in ptolemy.gui.Query
is not giving it space.

I'll look into this, but I'm not confident.
