Default /viewport aka looking up without looking up

I finally worked out a way to actually be able to see those dumb bloody bird horses which make it a nightmare to actually fight things, especially in sky!

Everquest will always give you the same horizontal field of vision, regardless of your screen size or ratio. As such, to fill the vertical field of vision it will just give you extra (or less) to fill the available pixels.

I was chatting to someone who had an extra wide monitor, and it left them with a very shallow vertical field of vision. I joked they should use /viewport to make a screen within their screen which was less narrow, then just fillup the dead space at the side(s) with UI elements.

Obviously I then immediately tried this out myself.

See how far I can look up and down!!

I look forward to being able to see what I am fighting next time I visit sky.
