On the desktop we handle all possible sizes with resizeStack handlers.

Colin is spot on. If you choose the right fullscreenMode and set up your layout appropriately you don't need any resizeStack handler at all. It works beautifully and it's all automatic. All the controls are scaled, placed correctly, and even the text size updates proportionally. For me, this is the most important improvement to mobile deployment that LC has done.

I think Colin was a little too reserved though, and that if carefully planned, even a screen full of database fields would scale just fine as long as you restrain the content area to the appropriate part of the screen. There's little difference really between the "playable area" of a game and the "working area" of a data card.
