You realize that the menu's native resolution is (currently) 4:3, and thus the stretching is actually the "change," right?
to quote some guy who writes stuff:

The FS interface has never, ever included pillarboxing. It has always displayed the interface to fit the screen, whether that entailed stretching the interface itself or just running in 1024x768 (and thus stretching the interface for anything != 4:3). Stretching = retail
Yeah I know I can change it, I'm just whining because I'm a grumpy old codger.
Also I'm with battuta on the topic of sticking crap in the black boxes. That has never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, looked anything but terrible.
