If you draw a line, then hold Shift, click an endpoint and drag to lengthen
the line, the line immediately expands to a random long length that extends
off the slide. Sizing a line while keeping it straight is almost impossible
in PP2007, except just by eyeballing.

This is a bug. Microsoft is aware of it. (I know I'm hoping it gets fixed in
a service pack or something, because it's frustrating.)
