It is probably a bit of a hack, but you could try running 
gtk_widget_get_size_request() on both the GtkMozEmbed and toplevel 
GtkWindow.  The difference in height/width will give you an idea of the 
size of the chrome round the content area, which you could use to guess 
what sizes to pass to gtk_window_resize().
