Bug ID: 51890
           Summary: A lot more old games would be so much more usable if
                    wine's virtual desktop had proper resizing
           Product: Wine-staging
           Version: 6.18
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown

I have a really significant amount of older games around, none of which will
launch on this machine without wine's virtual desktop feature because on a
widescreen monitor, they determine there is no "expected" fullscreen resolution
available and crash.

Now I'd just use the virtual desktop, except it feels archaic and not very
usable: why is it that for a 800x600 game on a 800x600 virtual desktop, I can't
just maximize the virtual desktop window and get the virtual desktop SCALED UP
with proper letterboxing so I can play in some other way than a tiny window
with zero immersion and everything so small I can barely see it? Funnily enough
I can even resize the virtual desktop window except the resizing is fully
ignored and I just get black void with no scaling up all around with the game
stuck in the top-left, and the maximizing is blocked.

Scaling up (with automatic letterboxing), maximizing would seem like such
obvious features to make virtual desktop gaming infinitely less clumsy and
weird that I am a bit surprised it's not in there yet. Can it please be added??
