It is not obvious that bool argument to app.SetRoot(list, true) is fullscreen flag. Maybe it is better to maintain it as a Box property and init with tview.Box().SetFullScreen(true)?

tview is not like HTML where every element decides what size it is. It's a top-down layout. So if there's only one primitive, it's the application itself that makes it full-screen.
