I'd like to put my 2¢ towards allowing TM2 windows to shrink narrower than what now appears to be a ~ 538px minimum limit. It is sometimes nice to have a narrow window next to a much wider window. I don't remember TM1 having this min limit. It seems TM2's min width is determined by the status and menus a the bottom-left of the window.
This became an issue for me because a) now using a "13 MBA, and b) have found the wonderful http://spectacleapp.com/ to allow hotkey-window resizing. One of the dimensions Spectacle supports is too narrow for TM2, and blocks easy automated window tiling. =)

I have a 13-inch MacBook (Pro), and what I do is to show document tabs even for a single document, with command output to the right of text view. Every script I open thus becomes a tab in this one window, and I say New Tab when I want to make a completely new script. Thus there is just one window! It's true I can't see two scripts at once, but I don't need to; I can see a script and its results, and that's what matters. I could make this single window full-screen, but I don't usually bother.
I'm not saying this would work for your purposes, but personally, when I discovered I could work like this on the small screen, I was really happy. m.

Split pane windows would solve this problem. I just had a look at Bounty Source (https://www.bountysource.com/issues/27-split-pane-feature) and it would seem that there’s somebody willing to pick up the issue if another $16 is raised.

It is, and they are created using auto-layout here https://github.com/textmate/textmate/blob/master/Frameworks/OakTextView/src/... (for the main one)
For example the grammar and symbol pop-ups are each set to min. 125 pixels.
I’d welcome a patch which allows for smaller widths, the patch should keep proper relative sizes, i.e. ideally it should behave as now until the window goes below 538 pixels (where it can start to break some of the constraints).

Thanks Allan, that should be easy enough, although I'm not versed in C. Hopefully somebody would like to pick this up.

It’s mainly about understanding auto-layout.
But if you can live without the status bar, then current nightly build allows you to disable it (see release notes) which will allow for a narrower window.
