Not sure if this is your issue (my land line has been down most of the day and am on GSM network), but invisible separators still take space unless you explicitly tell them not to:

    separator.set_size_request(0, -1)

So your separator factory might need a tweak. See Physics activity.py line 103 for a working example.
