What's the use of supporting all these different aspect ratios in the
first place? These LCD's will get their own aspect ratio when they go
fullscreen with stretch-to-fit. As far as I can tell, only 3 options
are needed: original size, same aspect ratio as the original, and
stretch-to-fit (either the resizeable window dimensions or the full
screen). Anything else just seems to complicate matters, no?
