Yes, his happen sometimes on my 1024x600 screen, an example is the 
"Account Settings" in Thunderbird.
Another example is Inkscape when before 0.47 (we have a development 
snapshot in F11 which finally works OK) it was not possible to fit the 
*main window* on the small screen.

But in most of the cases I find a normal GNOME desktop (with both 
panels, at the top and bottom) usable enough that I don't want anything 
else.
