Given that screen.width/height might have been used widely for tracking devices, it seems easier to change Desktop browsers. By the way, our folks complained that it's not easy to find the CSS unit requirment (3.1) from where Screen is defined (5.2). Perhaps it would be a good idea to have some more links here and there?
