The only significant viewport limitation I see isn't intrinsic. Modern browsers do a remarkably good job of filling the available space if only they are allowed to do so, and they're pretty generic in their ability to do it pretty much like every other modern browser. Instead, the big limitation is that most web designers choose, self-limit, to using less than 100% of the available width whenever that width is more than some arbitrary px value related to lowest common denominator (lowfi) user configuration. If you don't measure your design objects in px, then viewport size needn't matter much, if at all. -- "Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up."
