Comment (by Thorin):

 +1 for closing this. ESR68 will come ship with letterboxing the inner
 window, and will most likely be a whole other discussion. But it certainly
 solves the allowing flexibility problem.

 - `privacy.resistFingerprinting.letterboxing` (currently 200's x 100's
 stepping)
 - `privacy.resistFingerprinting.letterboxing.dimensions` (for testing, but
 could perhaps be used to enforce a set of resolutions)

 Note that letterboxing is currently separate to the
 `privacy.resistFingerprinting` pref (for now), so you can still control
 the window size on open but also allow users to resize the browser as they
 need.

 Note: hoping #27845 is fixed in time, as that bug usually causes a too
 small height, but this letterboxing would also mitigate that (albeit
 annoyingly by stealing 95, or 98, or 97 or something pixels height until
 27845 is fixed)
