Yeah, that's the usage pattern I'd expect -- you have a window that is
the width you're most comfortable with, and then shr renders using that
width, surely?

If shr uses a width wider than the window in this scenario, that's a bug
in shr.

The problem with defaulting shr-width to anything in particular is that
the rendering will be wonky if you then have a window that's narrower
than that.

I think introducing a new variable, shr-max-width, might perhaps be
nice?  That is, no matter how wide a window you have, nobody probably
wants to read HTML formatted wider than that.
