If your drawer comes out to the sides (left or right), it can only
be as wide as the window from which it is sliding. For top/bottom
drawers, they can only be as high as the window from which they are
sliding. This isn't mentioned anywhere in the docs, but this is the
conclusion I have reached through testing.

This behaviour of drawers is actually mentioned in the Human
Interface Guidelines (some of it still makes sense ;-) ). Since a
real-life drawer cannot be bigger than the desk it is in, a windows-
drawer cannot be greater than its parent window:
"To support the illusion that a closed drawer is hidden behind its
parent window, an open drawer should be smaller than its parent window."
