Comment (by cypherpunks):

 >If valid popup then why it should be with different size, why need to
 create yet one properties to identify users?
 Btw, it's hard to do anyway. Any valid popups will be rounded by Torbutton
 anyway. Resizing possible with tricks and fraud only. Yet one reason to
 disable resizing in general.
