I expect the display plugins to check and recover from out of range 
values. The code in 
platforms/unix/vm-display-X11/sqUnixX11.c:setWindowSize() does this 
check already.

We could generalize this and set the WxH sizes in the header to zero to 
mean "let the display plugins pick a reasonable size". The above code 
sets the default to 640x480.
