We currently have the following ways of changing the dialog size

1. By changing the mainItem size
2. By actually changing the size of the dialog via QML
3. Window Managers

(3) is not something that is exposed to the user since the dialog never 
actually has the border. I think we can safely ignore this one. Also, maybe can 
explicitly set some window flags to tell the WM to never allow the client to 
resize the window.

(2) kind of makes sense except that then maybe we shouldn't have (1). Example -


    Dialog {
        width: 500
        height: 500
        
        mainItem : Rectangle {
            width : 200
            height: 200
        }
    }
    
What do you think should be happening in this case? It's not obvious. I propose 
we make the mainItem responsible for the dialog size. The 'width' and 'height' 
properties of the Dialog can be made read only.
