OK Scott, should we continue on list or move off. It might be good to continue on list for a while to see who's keen to be involved.

Continuing to think out loud on this. One thing we want to be able to do is work in whatever density we like and then have everything still scale right. So what about the framework mainstack has a density property. On mobile this is worked out during preOpenStack and on desktop it would default to mdpi but be settable so  you can use whatever you want. This is independent of stack size and the setprop handler would cause the controls on the current card to resize.

One important thing to consider is inventing a cool non-developer specific acronym and prefix for this thing ;-) My hope is it can handle more than just this one issue. Thinks like preferences come to mind.

My vote is for mafia - Mobile App Framework with Interface Adaptation ;-)
