> But this is not a hard requirement, and there are and will be activities
that do not scale well. In particular ports of existing apps that do not
use vector graphics throughout.
How are we going to encourage fixing them (or even detecting them) if even
the emulators use exactly the same resolution of the hardware?
I see value in varying the test environment slightly to break assumptions
that resolution will never change. The resolution *will* change with each
bew generation of the hardware.
Better making it clear now than being forced to add compatibilty kludges
reminiscent of MS-DOS.
