.ic-layout-wrapper max width causes pages to squish on high dpi monitors. #2100

Is there a reason for this max width to be set that I'm not seeing?

Viewing Canvas as a student, It causes pages on my 4k display to be unable to use the whole screen. It's only a problem when viewing embedded files or application such as the PDF viewer, but it can cause these to be squished and difficult to view at full size. For apps like webassign that will scale when zoomed it ensures the need to access the app externally.

I've been using stylebot to unset the max width and I've not noticed any problems; this is not to say that there are none, only that in day to day use I have not found any. Would it be possible to just not set a max width and allow the page to be responsive to all sizes?
