I prefer not burdening all apps with 2 resolution numbers when most
use square resolutions.

Once way around this: Specify "res" to mean horizontal resolution and
add "res-vert" to indicate vertical resolution.

If only res is indicated, then a client could assume square pixels.

I think this is sufficiently straightfoward. Comment?
