At the moment I'm using 1600x900 in d3d9.ini to run a 1366x768 GUI mod. This causes all the 2D graphics to sit in the bottom left corner whilst the 3d stuff extends underneath it to the edge of the display. Looks bizarre, but works. You've inspired me to try 1024x768 and no widescreen. I'm going to try Fifi's NYGM hardcore without widescreen, I'll tell you how I get on.
It may be my 32" 4K computer monitor that does it in wide screen. I can not imagine most monitors running wide screen on 1024x768. Just got done with another foray out into the Atlantic. Sure looks great and runs very stable!
