      Issue Summary

      When rendering a page as full-width in the new editor, there's a large amount of whitespace on both the left and the right side. 

      Users want to be able to use full-width so their pages utilize as much horizontal space as the page allows. 

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Create a page in the new Confluence editor.
      2. Switch to Make page full-width
      3. Make sure your browser window is maximized to the full page so you can see the amount of whitespace that is left behind.

      Expected Results

      The page should stretch from one side of the editor window to the other.

      Actual Results

      In this case, there's a large amount of unused space.

      Workaround

      No current workaround.

            Another vote for this – on a fairly common wide-screen business-class monitor, the Confluence content is forced into a narrow column down the middle of the window, and there are very wide margins of wasted space on both the right and left. 

            It's even worse on pages with tables with several columns, which are forced to be narrow and therefore wrap and make the text hard to read, and require a ton of vertical scrolling.  Seeing all the wasted space that could be used to make the columns wider makes it really frustrating.

            If required on small screens, offer the option of zooming the browser to view more columns (if people don't want to horizontal scroll as much on a small screen).  Instead, now when you use the browser zoom option instead of making more columns fit, it makes the column of actual content even narrower and the blank wasted margins right and left even wider.  That's a backwards design!
