I think the aspect ratio setting is not enforced precisely enough or 
in enough cases. I've had trouble with it not always working. If I 
remember correctly it has shortcomings when it comes to zooming a 
window, and perhaps is ignored when setting the frame programatically.

I can't remember all the reasons, but in my crossword solving 
application it's important to keep the window a size that allows the 
puzzle grid to be an even pixel multiple. I ended up enforcing it in 
windowWillResize and windowWillUseStandardFrame.
