I have the Amiga 1000 with 1080 monitor.  I used morerows to get 40 more
pixel columns, but like you, the vertical has no room.  I had to go into
preferences and move the screen a bit after I did this and also selected
interlace, btw.

I did not install the fonts from antiflicker and just ran it.. boy thats
not right I guess.  It smeared the characters so bad that it looked like
someone had cranked the focus out.  Yes it flickered less but I want
sharper font not less sharp.  Do the fonts with it, make a diff?

other thing I did was to set up to put two cli windows up, one is
standard width (640x240), other is 680x240 and running the scroll back
device (Console Buffer 1.1 by William Fritz).  I sized it so that the
right most line of the scroll bar is actually off screen.  This gives me
an 81 char text window with scroll back and a 77 char standard window.

I have had some crashes with Console buffer though.  When I run CLIPS (a
rule based shell for artificial intelligence) and do a system call to
run a simple c program the scroll bar goes away, but the window still
works.
