I had a bit of the same annoyance as #9064. I agree that with balanced
padding, you should expect horizontal jitter when resizing horizontally,
and vertical jitter when resizing vertically. Diagonal jitter, however,
happened because the top padding was upper bounded by the left padding,
coupling the vertical and horizontal wobbling. This looks kind of janky,
and it's surprising that the balance between top and bottom padding
changes as you vary only the width of the window.
With this PR, the upper bound is instead equal to the maximum left
padding. Since this only depends on the config, not the current window
width, the diagonal wobbling is avoided. Both the top and left padding
still have the same range of motion as before.
An alternative could be to bound by the minimum or median left padding
instead. Open to suggestions.
