Makes sense.

I believe the 800x600 viewport makes it easy to accidentally write incorrect ref tests that look good when you read the HTML in the test file and the expected file, but are no good. It would be nice to find a simple way to spot flawed ref tests easily so even an inexperienced beginner will notice such mistakes.
