The idea is to introduce multiple rendering modes that make sense when the window is in different orientation.  In particular, this idea arises out of annoyance with monitors that are wider than they are all.  The best way to use that extra space would be to have two windows side by side... however, the monitors aren't quite ''that'' wide.  So, create a rendering mode that looks for the widest column of text and emphasizes that text.  The middle column would be made wider as a percentage of the overall page width.  The side columns would be shrunk.  But most importantly, the page would flow across both halves of the window, filling the whole thing with text.

Other render modes become possible too: narrow window might be used on a different screen form factor, such as a smart phone or when the window is taking up just a slice of a wide screen.
