And from thinking on this a little, the way to do it might be that we
try to do the xrandr to 800x600 like we already do.  If that succeeds
and/or our resolution is "small"[1], we set the window to be fullscreen.  
Otherwise, we let GTK+ figure out a good size with a minimal and hope
things fall out well.

It's going to be an impactful change, though, and take a fair bit of
testing across a lot of hardware to make sure it works well.  So doesn't
seem like three days before feature freeze material.  But Fedora 13
isn't that far off :-)

[1] For values TBD.  Probably <= 800x600 and also maybe including the
weird netbook resolutions
