No, don't do this.  The sizer that belongs to some window P should only 
have items added to it that are children of P, or sizers that also hold 
children of P.  If you add the sizer that belongs to the child window to 
P's sizer then it could result in a rip of the fabric of the universe 
and the exotic particles generated in a parallel universe could leak in 
and cause all kinds of havoc.  ;-)
