So what's the best way to make a HudElement full-screen? I've tried out a few
approaches, but I'm not sure which one could be considered "correct" in the
spirit of VGUI implementation. Note: just setting it 640x480 in
HudLayout.res won't work for us widescreeners.

Hooking into VidInit(), with SetBounds( 0, 0, ScreenWidth(), ScreenHeight() ).
(Or should that be Init() ?) Hopefully this is called every time the video
mode changes, so things resize appropriately should the player decide to
change video sizes.
Setting "xpos" to something ridiculous like "800" in HudLayout.res. This then
introduces issues with placement of sub-panels.
The solution I'm using now: overriding ApplySettings() and setting the bounds
to maximum after the baseclass ApplySettings() is called. In my experience,
this is called after video mode changes as well, so it holds well.
----
So which one?
