Right now we have only really these (*very* rough) placeholder guidelines in the working draft of the HIG: http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gup/hig/draft_hig_new/design-window.html#layout-window-size There's no doubt the HIG will need to concern itself more with the issue of smaller screen sizes in future, now that GNOME and gtk are finding their way onto more and more mobile devices. (Part of the problem, though, is that AFAIK gtk still expects all GUI dimensions and spacings to be specified in terms of absolute pixel sizes, which doesn't help when it comes to scalability issues.)
