Re: [csswg-drafts] [cssom-view] Should browser zoom affect screen.width?

Ok, thanks. I understand now why reporting the CSS pixel size of the 
viewport (i.e. the spec'd behaviour, and the behaviour implemented by 
Firefox) is the more privacy-friendly one.

Given that, an alternative suggestion would be:

- Leave the spec for `screen.width` as-is (reporting a CSS pixel 
value)
- Add a new variable, such as `window.pageZoom`, to expose the page 
zoom separately. This would also address #449. In privacy mode, this 
could always report 1.

Looping in @jacobrossi to see what the IE team thinks about the 
various options.
