I think that versions of Hypercard past v1.0 allowed for stacks of arbitrary window size; I know for a fact that I made up at least a few 1024x768 ones in v2.2.

You are correct in that I don't think it supported resizable windows without the use of some XCMD though.

You are correct. Surprisingly, I even found evidence for that: http://support.apple.com/kb/TA31048:

* All the cards in a given stack must be the same size, even if there are several different backgrounds in the stack.

* Smallest card size: 64 x 64 pixels

* Largest card size: 1280 x 1280 pixels.
