Reset option for window in windowed mode

Toni, since you're currently working quite a lot on the display stuff, one thing:

could you please allow the user (in windowed mode) to reset the window to pre-set values somehow after "tampering" with it?

Let the values be x = 720, y = 576. (specified by the user)

"Tampering" stands for expanding and shrinking the window. I would sometimes use this when WORKING with WinUAE, since I need some room left on my screen
This is quite a new feature anyhow, and normally I can use "human interpolation" to get near the original values if I need to revert to them later - but I won't be able to reset it exactly back to 720x576, if we keep to the above example; merely approximately I will be able to accomplish that.

A reset option would come in very handy therefore.

P. S. Ohh, my 5000th post

gratz on being a posting whore andreas jk

I understand your need, and I think it could definitely come in handy and as far as I can picture it, shouldn't be rocket science to implement nor have too much side-effects to be tested!

Easy to do but I don't think I want to add one GUI button just for quickly reseting two values..

Need not be a "GUI button", could also probably be done by context menu, e. g. by right-clicking the "Amiga" icon in the system tray.

Or by right-clicking the window, or the status bar or, or ... just think of a location you like best. Most important thing is that there *IS* an option for it, no matter how it be implemented in the end
