Description

In typical nodes, like the ones in the examples, which have only input fields but no output fields, these input fields occupy less horizontal space than the editable fields below. This leads to a grey unused area on the right side of a node.
It is of course debatable if this looks good or ugly, but the fact is that this space could be used to make the input fields in an input-only node larger and make use of this space.

Research direction

The issue names no file, test, or entry point. Start by locating the node layout handling for nodes with no output fields and compare it with the input-only nodes shown in the examples. Done means those input fields use the unused right-side space without disrupting the editable fields below.
