 Large screens with small numbers of widgets are implemented badly in the
 current responsive design.

 Content is squashed into tiny columns, and the column count expands past
 the number of active widgets.

 '''Best case''' would be for the number/width of columns to adjust to the
 number of active dashboard widgets instead of displaying the empty
 drag/drop areas.

 In lieu of that some mechanism to specify either column-count of a widget
 intended to be wide and/or better yet - maximum number of columns to
 display on the dashboard would be great.
