Why don't you disable screen resizing when the user-supplied callback is 
NULL, and enable it when it's not NULL? With your way, the user would 
have to continually call allow_window_resize after setting the gfx mode, 
even though they have a callback installed.

I can't think of a reason why a user would have a callback and not want 
to be able to resize, and I think it's rare (if not bad form) to have 
the window resizable but not have a callback installed.
