It would be really nice if modern browsers just waited to load all the images (or at least their sizes) before rendering any text on a page. Yeah, it would be slow as hell! It would force web designers to start compressing their images again and specifying sizes in the layouts. Obviously this isn't really possible anymore because of the range of screens we're dealing with. Okay, then here's an alternative: A browser plugin that reads the image heights and page heights on each page you visit, along with your window size, and reports that back. Then pre-sizes the height of the window and the elements for other users with the same plugin based on what it recorded.
