Research direction
Investigate how Zazu sets its window height. Look at the Electron main process file (likely `main.js` or `src/main/index.js`) for `BrowserWindow` configuration, especially the `height` option or any dynamic resizing logic. Check if the issue is related to GNOME's client side decorations or Ubuntu specific behavior. Review the comments for any additional hints, and test on Ubuntu 18 if possible.
