Even in the screenshots you posted, the Fonts module is displayed in full while the xserver is somehow using half the height it requires and adds a scrollbar inside to be able to see all the contents. Personally I prefer to have a bigger window (if it fits the screen) displaying all the contents at once instead of having a smaller one but having to scroll to look for information. Having said that, I am aware that a (very) few windows have so many things in it that displaying the full contents on a 1368x768 (or 1024x768) monitor is not possible. Regarding the left column, could you file an enhancement request on the bugszilla to "hide the left column" when only one control module is displayed? So we don't forget about it.
