Minimize length of stream box during compose based on available space & maximum stream length
Currently the stream box can be quite wide; we spread the boxes between the available width.
While topic length can vary, we should be able to find some way to determine a smaller length using urwid's features based on what we know about the maximum stream length at the time.
Good related features to consider
- if we can/should limit the width of the 'topic edit' box while editing (edit-one, edit-later, edit-all messages in a topic)
- fix the length of the stream box while editing, if the stream cannot be changed (pending message moving feature)
I've labelled this as a good first issue initially as this would be good to help someone new to this to get to know urwid and the core UI, but this may be challenging or trickier than I expect and involve digging a little to find the right combination of spacing, so that this works over a wide range of window widths.

is the issue still unresolved?
@notlelouch You could look through open PRs, but there is no merged fix - try running the development version of ZT on a wide terminal and you should be able to see the problem.
