When full page zoom is active window.resizeBy and window.resizeTo should multiply their arguments by the zoom factor. window.innerWidth and innerHeight report values that take the zoom factor into account. This way it's not possible for a script to control window size.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Activate full page zoom. Use window.resizeTo() to resize the window to a given size.
Actual Results:  
The window's physical size will match the arguments given to window.resizeTo. window.outerWidth/outerHeight will report values less by the zoom factor.

Expected Results:  
The window's physical size should match the arguments multiplied by the zoom factor.

The actual problem is the inconsistent behavior of the getter and setter methods. For instance, Opera reports actual window sizes even if full page zoom is active. The most transparent solution for scripts would be that both the setter and getter methods take the full page zoom factor into account.
