That latter is far from unique to Calibre — it's a rather default UI problem in this day of many programmers using multiple monster-sized screens for their work (and not then exhaustively testing on non-custom setups with more, umm, "consumer-grade" hardware). One can observe it in both Mac and Windows folder-moving operations, and I recall it in a 2017-vintage Linux graphical interface. So no blame, just a request concerning something that I've seen and as other comments indicate isn't unique...
