Yes, I disabled all this to make sure the frame (and therefore the windows 
on the frame) would become as small as possible.  I tested this with emacs 
-Q, with several windows on the frame displaying a buffer in which 
(long-line-optimizations-p) is non-nil, without any header line or tab 
line.

Perhaps I should have tried to disable the mode-line.  Let's see...

M-: (setq mode-line-format nil) RET

No, still no way to get a zero height or width.  Increasing or decreasing 
the font size in the buffer also has no effect, I can't get a zero height 
or width.

Indeed.
