Bug Description
Currently a skin has fixed size dimensions corresponding to the image defined in the <Background> section of a skin.xml.
Inside the skin.xml we can already dynamically resize the content of most elements. So if the background would dynamical change the content could change as well. This requires some work with the existing WidgetGroups, but i`m confident this could be done mostly with the existing possibilities in skin.xml.
Until the Mighty Skin 2.0 arrives, this would allow Mixxx at least to fit the available screen space like 99% of all other dektop programs.

I'm doing some experimentation here in lp:~mixxxdevelopers/mixxx/features_facelift
Currently breaks compatibility with all the skins but allows true resizing / fullscreen with essentially the current widget system (with some minor changes).
Deere1280x1024-SXGA is where I hacked in the changes. Other skins are likely to crash/freeze Mixxx so you may have to edit mixxx.cfg by hand.
