There are many situations where you may want to run a program (or have 
just a single window of a program) and different resolutions, such as:

# Running games that require a specific resolution/color depth
# Running emulators at lower res/color depth for better speed
# Using lower res for bigger (and easier to see) icon thumbnails
# Viewing small text at lower res to improve readability

Yes!
