You can specify "novirtual" in XF86Config to get rid of that silly 
virtual desktop. Then I think X will behave as you'd expect, the 
boundary of your desktop at all modes is then the same as your monitor.

If it's the size of the text that's a problem and you're using mozilla, 
you can just type Ctrl +/Ctrl - to make the text larger or smaller. It 
doesn't seem like changing the screen resolution out to be necessary to 
view a web page.
