Comment (by mcs):

 I should have mentioned this a while ago; sorry.  Or maybe I'm wrong.
 In my opinion, we shouldn't always answer the same thing.  Instead the
 answer should be determined from the "screen size" (which is faked from
 the window size).  If a site asks for screen size and is given portrait
 dimensions, wouldn't it make sense to also return portrait for
 orientation?
