Preview of Resolution Independent Control library for RevMobile

[Charles E Buchwald]

I'd like to put in a vote for being able to separate the scaling from the layout adjustment features. For desktop standalones I'd like to be able to readjust the stack size without the objects scaling, but still have the general layout readjust to fit the new window size.
Ultimately I'd like to be able to produce cross-platform applications for BOTH mobile and desktop use... not just mobile environments.

As the feature request would really only be useful at a group level for this (or perhaps at a stack level if only considering standard v retina ios) and we would still need to know the scale to apply I think it could be a drop in replacement for any scaling routine we invent.
