Just make sure your form submits the current width and size. Nest some
hidden fields in your form (but back them up with Wicket components)
and have something like this in your page's header:
document.myForm.widthField.value = window.innerWidth ||
document.body.offsetWidth;
document.myForm.heightField.value = window.innerHeight ||
document.body.offsetHeight;
where myForm is the id of your Wicket form, and widthField and
heightField are the ids of the hidden fields on your form.
When those values come in, you can just update your client properties
object; they are cached throughout the whole session. Though you don't
have to use that object in the first place; you can just use those
values directly and be done with it, or put them in your session as
separate properties. Whatever you like :)

Yep.

Yep. The duty of a framework is to provide generic solutions, but if
you don't need it, go for the simplest thing that works! :)
