Idea: resize game window to certain aspect ratio

Problem

If you have a vertical/portrait display (i.e. you rotate the LCD screen to be taller than wider), many games have severe graphical glitches because they were not designed and never tested with such displays. (example in this tweet)

In some games, switching to windowed mode allows the user to resize the game window, which works well. In other games, the windowed mode is restricted to a few pre-defined resolutions (coming from the game engine and maybe from the video card).

Proposed feature

In Borderless Gaming tool, we could right-click a favorited game and choose a certain aspect ratio. Then, the tool would resize the game window to fit the screen while keeping a certain aspect ratio. The actual window dimensions would be automatically calculated by the tool, based on the display resolution and the desired aspect ratio.

Bonus points for keeping the title bar visible, because that will let the user to move the window to another location if needed.
