So, it seems max/min "hints" can be desirable from a window/compositor manager point of view, whereas things like aspect ratio, size steppings, etc. aren't
I'll send an updated patch to:
- Reword the description and request name to make it clearer that it really is a preference and not a rule (Quentin mentioned that on irc yesterday), without using the word "hint" :)
- add a similar "preferable min size" request
Then we can continue discussing from there.
Cheers,
Olivier
