Comment (by pospeselr):
So I looked into this since I'm currently working on #32220.
Adding an onresize event to the window object seems to indicate that
intermediate rescaling (and therefore jiggle) does occur. IE stretching a
window whos browser element is set to width 1000, will see something like
width 1013 after stretch before the letterboxing logic kicks in resets it
back to 1000 (or 1100 if the stretch is large enough).
So there is some aspect of jiggle there in terms of the browse element
growing and shrinking (or vice versa) due to users rescaling. Of course
there will be the appearance of movement since rescaling implies
recentering, but in that case it should be movement in one direction, not
jiggle/jitter. It seems to me that whatever CSS rule is applied to the
browser element is not setting it to a fixed size, but some sort of
scaling that the letterboxing code then snaps back, but I would need to
investigate further to be sure on how the implementation actually works.
