I'll keep on asking, against all odds

Dear everyone out there (and especially Helmut),
All of you seem use a fixed size for the viewer window, but I really prefer
to use a variable size. At least, when the user maximizes the window, I
allow the frame that contains the viewer to also increase in size. When he
switches back to normal, my viewer will decrease in size.
So, I know I've been asking since 0.3 or so, but why should the user have to
suffer downloading the very same panorama all over again, simply because he
wanted to see it a little bigger??
Netscape unfortunately doesn't allow resizing the applet window on the fly,
but IE *does* allow it:
document.ptviewer.width = document.body.clientWidth;
document.ptviewer.height = document.body.clientHeight;
(And fortunately, most Windoze people happen to use IE thanks to or due to
MS's unfair competition.)
So, wouldn't it be incredibly nifty if PTViewer would provide a function
that we could call, to tell it to resize its panorama according to its new
applet space?
I think so. At least, I'll keep asking for it ;)
