(Otherwise you would also have to add 5/4, 16/10, 21/9, etc for more esoteric displays/computer monitors)The only reason I don't like that is that if at some point in the future we'd like to use other than HD resolutions, like 720x480 to let display/processor handle scaling.
I think it would be better to avoid scaling by very small amounts.
There is a case to be made for special casing 4:3 and 16:9 - those are the aspect ratios of CEA standard modes. I do agree though that it's an ugly solution.
