As a temporary fix I manually edited gui.json to delete the long string and restarted Calibre. The dialog shrunk and I could then resize it using the righthand handles.
Using the latest plugin in Calibre 2.42 on Windows 8.1 64bit.

Lots of dialogs expand to fit the string shown.
Personally, I hate things that keep changing size, moving the edge around (right aligned things keep moving the left edge)
