Hello Klaus,

Yes, you are. Frankly, I've never seen any valuable result of fully dynamic
width distribution. A powerful constraint engine is needed to cope with
this, and none of the modern browsers has it.

Introducing percentage and other measurements (similar to the DefDoc
project) would be much easier and also useful.
