Comment (by ben):

 How dangerous this is can be clearly seen when you go to
 <https://panopticlick.eff.org> and click "Test me". You will most likely
 be "unique", due to the unusual screen resolution.
 Test again with maximized window and watch the "one in x browsers" value
 for screen resolution go down dramatically.
