Lix Main / Re: Giant window size (> 10x screen res): Lix opens & closes repeatedly

It looks as if we have 3 different behaviors here.
More investigation/problem detection is hard. E.g., we can try to catch case 1 (Silken's case) by looking at the time until the window self-closes, and force 640 x 480 if it closes too quickly. But I have no good ideas yet to prevent the strange windows in cases 2 and 3.

- Silken's open-close-open-close-... at unknown resolution, 10 times bigger than native.
- Forestidia's white window that won't close, and that you only see in the taskbar, at 10,000 x 10,000.
- Forestidia's flickering window that eventually closed, and that you only see in the taskbar, at 20,000 x 20,000. After it closed, Lix produced a window at 640 x 480.
