DockLayoutPanel inside custom DecoratorPanel

[Will]

I am trying to create a custom DecoratorPanel that will work with
DockLayoutPanel as the child widget. I tried a normal DecoratorPanel
and found that only Widgets in the North section of the
DockLayoutPanel actually render. I used FireBug to determine that the
rest of the widgets are added to the DOM but are simply not rendering
on the screen.
I have also tried extending DecoratorPanel and implementing
RequiresResize, ProvidesResize but that didn't help. When I
implemented the two interfaces my onResize was as follows:
public void onResize() {
if(getWidget() instanceof RequiresResize){
((RequiresResize)getWidget()).onResize();
}
}
The if logic executes (I verified with a System.out.println) however
the North section is still the only part that renders. The
DecoratorPanel is added to the DOM with:
RootLayoutPanel.get().add(myPanel);
I am going to test with other LayoutPanels and see if this problem is
unique to DockLayoutPanel but I was curious if anyone else has
encountered this or has any suggestions for how I might resolve the
dilemma.

Having the same issue here.

I'm getting the same behavior. North shows up, the others are
somewhere in the dom, but not visible.

In doing some research on DOM layout it looks as though the problem
may be the fact that DecoratorPanel is implemented with a Table.
Every document I read says that height=100% is not reliable with a
table in standards mode which is required for flow layout. I tried
all of the flow layout classes and each one had rendering trouble
inside a table with height=100%. I think my next move is going to be
creating a DecoratorPanel that does not use a table and see if that
works.
