I'm not sure we can change the function signature, it's public stable
ABI.

But this might be worth looking into: if the window system produces a
bad size, what do drivers do when they cannot allocate or render to it?

In X11 it's all hidden from the app, but I don't think the gfx stack can
guarantee valid sizes in all cases, can it?

Anyway, my suggestion is just for convenience, and if drivers already
just silently do whatever on a bad size, being silent here does not
make it any worse.
