Thanks Alistair, also a note to the list that screen resolution plays a factor when the issues for resize may come into effect. My recommendation would be to set your resolution at no more than 1280 wide although some people who need zoom may be using less such as me. Also of note is that resize of page contents may be triggered by different factors including changing the width of the viewport (e.g. window) but I'd recommend zoom as it changes the scale factor and width of window which I personally believe provides a more comprehensive experience to what people who use zoom will experience.

If you'd like some examples in the wild, Jonathan Avila sent me some when we were discussing the possible new zoom success criteria:
- http://guidobouman.github.io/jquery-panelsnap/
- https://css-tricks.com/examples/ScrollingSidebar/
-
https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=LEwGcwiRf9gC&pg=PA162&lpg=PA162&dq=example+where+zoom+in+gets+smaller&source=bl&ots=oQIz7vNoa9&sig=OlBTW3BV4Nq9fgaaa80EmFNPV04&hl=en&sa=X&redir_esc=y#v=onepage&q=example%20where%20zoom%20in%20gets%20smaller&fúlse

I think those have issues with both 1.4.4 and the new zoom criteria.

Cheers,

-Alastair
