I know the settings can change, but only per the options on there server correct? Are there any plans for a "fit to screen" option in the viewport? it would be similar to the zoom wizard that's build into the view port, except you would be able to resize the window, and choose fit to screen as a zoom option

Where VNC provides a view at the console (all M$Windows, some linux) there the setting of the console also sets the vnc-server-side. As far as I know, the vnc-server will reset if the console-geometry changes so the viewer must also be restarted. On most unix and linux implementations, the resolution is set at startup and cannot be changed on the fly. The vncviewer only shows what the server offers and unfortunatly, once the server resets, the viewer must also be restarted. So, no there is no easy way to change the resolution on the fly. On the viewer-side, there are 2 ways to change the display geometry (or better said: viewport size): By default the view just is clipped around the edges, scrollbars are provided to change the viewport. There are viewers that can reduce the view by interleaving: the resolution of the same picture is changed just as your picture viewer will resize. So yes, vnc can change size, both on server as on client side. However, not the way you like it...
