Should there be a "recommended resolution" for Workstation?

I've got a 1024x768 VM and I've got all kinds of weirdness from
gnome-software seemingly expecting a much bigger display. Maybe it's a
bug
so I filed one: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1141337

A resolution recommendation wouldn't suggest that you can't have less.
But
that if you have what's recommended, then you should have a good
experience
and not have to resize windows by default. They should just all fit in
the
recommended screen size. So I'm suggesting a burden on developers, rather
than a limitation on users. Maybe 1280x1024?

Btw. it's not only for Workstation product but for Server too - Anaconda
also needs at least 1024x768, otherwise some labels may overflow the screen
etc.

Fedora isn't installable on netbooks?

It is but based on this thread, it can lead to issues in everything with
GUI... From Anaconda to GNOME. And I'm not saying overflowing label saying
"dora Workstat" is that big deal, just looking unprofessional. It does not
happen for any Fedora products as far as I know but we hit with other RH
product with very long name...

Would it be worth specifying both a minimum "widescreen" resolution and a minimum "regular" resolution?

Or would this just lead to more confusion?

just a thought,
