Um, table rows resizing to fit their cells' contents is generally not
considered a problem. You do realize that if the row height doesn't
increase to accommodate more text, the text will be cut off, right? It's
not like FM will automagically shrink it to fit, or something.

That said, the Row Format dialog (Table > Row Format) lets you specify
minimum and maximum row heights.
