Do you want to use a render_object/render_store for this? Those currently
only support magnifying with one factor. One could easily change magnify
in it to magnify_x and magnify_y. I just happened to do it that way.
If someone does this change he should also add a boolean to render_obj
that say wheter aspect ratio should be maintained or not, defaulting to
true to keep backwards compatibility.

I might have time to finish it this week.
