Greetings.

Now that everything is composited, would I be crazy to ask for the ability
to scale windows? Use cases:

1) I like playing wizball ( C64 game ) with my son. People around my age
might remember it. Some genius wrote a Windows version that works perfectly
in wine. But it runs at around 648x480. I'd prefer to not have to change my
desktop to be 640x480 to be able to play it nicely.

2) Some people have tiny monitors, and my fat-arsed apps don't fit on their
screen. It would be good if they could 'zoom out' to see the whole window
at once.

3) Similar to above - dealing with projectors that only run at 1024x768,
etc.

I guess there are challenges with things like mouse inputs, that would also
have to be 'scaled' appropriately. But it would be ultra-cool :)

Maybe it would be easier to implement just scaling the entire display at
once? I'd be happy with that at this point ... eg hit some key and spin the
mouse wheel to zoom into whatever I'm pointing at.
