The collapse of the 'Status bar' is accepted behavior. The Zoom bar widget has priority and remains even when app frame width is reduced such that portions are hidden.

Otherwise Zoom is implemented with <Ctrl>+mouse wheel, and functions regardless of appframe width.

Likewise the zoom actions are assigned to default keyboard shortcuts of <Ctrl><Shift>+<PgDn/PgUp>.

Those should suffice for expert users working with diminutive app frame sizes.
