	You will be able to scroll with the mouse. If this isn't what you want then 
change desktop resolution.

	Don't understand what you mean here. If you have more than one monitor then 
this isn't a problem and you can easily switch between multiple windows 
anyway even on one (linux) desktop. Of course if you have only one monitor 
this is understandable problem.

	In short if these solutions isn't what you want there is only solution: 
implement what you want (yourself or find a programmer). But this isn't 
simple as you may think and even worse: such functionality will be unusable 
in most cases. Why? Because even if implemented it will be SLOW (even if we 
will use all hardware OpenGL functionality; if not then this is overkill in 
all cases). This is why you need full hardware stretching like it or not for 
full speed.
	Please don't get me wrong. I agree it would be great and flexible to have 
virtual desktop with arbitrary stretching (this is as fast as 2x2 stretching 
if we are using OpenGL for it) but it will be very slow even with OpenGL 
because we need to render into texture and of course implementation isn't 
very simple even if you agree to have slow speed for some applications where 
you want this functionality.
