I think the natural default is the frame width -- people have presumably
chosen a frame width they are comfortable with using.

shr is an HTML rendering library, eww is a browser that uses that
library.  (But you could envision a different browser based on shr.)

But it would make sense to point users to shr variables, too, when they
are customising eww.  Does Customize have support for something like
that?
