You might want to look at the fullScreenMode property. This lets you set the full screen scaling mode of your stack.
How many apps in the Android and iOS app stores use scaling instead of positioning?

Might we want to point new users to a lesson on using resizeStack so they can get results like they're used to seeing in other apps?

Yes, absolutely, it is just one option.

Richmond has given an example of laying out the controls in code, we also have a couple of lessons that might be helpful in addition to that example.
