The distinction here is between gadgets which size their children to
their preferred size versus gadgets which size their children to the
container size. The latter behavior is called "filling". Packs can
fill but only in the axis orthogonal to their layout axis (so a
vertical pack can stretch horizontally to fill available space, if you
set the fill slot to 1 with '1 >>fill').

The UI is not very well documented in general. This isn't really a
warning, just different behavior of layouts.
