[oslc-core] Need for window resize for Delegated UIs

[Steve K Speicher]

Just following up on this need [1].  There is an implementation team that 
has an immediate need for this and I will be recommending they use this 
solution ahead of it being truly being incorporated into the spec.  I see 
no harm in implementing this.  Consumers that don't support it simply 
don't get the events and providers who don't support it, simply don't send 
the events.  The harm is it additive to the spec.  These feels 
straightforward and could include just a 1 liner in delegated UI section 
to reference the re-sizing in [2]

Anyone see any problems with this approach?
Can we queue this up for Core topic?
