Hi Brian,
I agree in the case of full-screen video games, but we don't make
those in Rev (yet?). I'm not sure that I agree in the case of video
players. When a video player changes the screen resolution, the movie
is often displayed with a bad screen geometry and I wouldn't recommend
it. There is rarely need to change the screen resolution for kiosk
applications, because those run on computers with system settings
specifically adjusted to the software.

Mark,
While I agree with you in principle, I think it's worth noting that
an application can always ASK the user for permission to change the
screen resolution and then do it for you with your approval. Also,
there are some cases (such as full screen video players or kiosks)
where it is perfectly acceptable behavior to take over your screen
and return things to normal when it is suspended or terminated.
