Comment 1 for bug 1393630

In the duplicate bug kdub suggested limiting resizes to the max texture size. That would be hackish and also an artificial limitation. We can create larger buffers already without any problem. The only issue is how to render them. So I would prefer we changed the rendering method rather than preventing resize requests (which do succeed just fine).

On modern hardware this might not be a problem at all. I suspect GL_MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE is staying sufficiently ahead of common display resolutions that we won't need to fix this bug in a hurry.
