Quite frankly, the Knowledge Base response to this is insulting.
Obviously we can resize the window, that's not what people are asking for. People are asking for you to make the main window readable. This is a world of multi-tab browsing, and asking people to make a change to accommodate your site when their current window setup works fine for literally every other site they go to is bizarre.
How many blogs do you see that run the text right to the edge of the page?
How many books have no margin?
There's a reason why we have margins, columns, etc. Past a certain size, books move to a multi-column layout, because reading extremely long lines of text is uncomfortable and unpleasant.
Also, reading text that goes right to the edge is similarly uncomfortable and unpleasant, and resizing the window does nothing for this - each line is shorter, but still awkwardly goes right to the edge of the screen...
I - as many people - are looking for an alternative to GR, and thought I'd found it in TOR - but this is a deal-breaker. I was reading a post, and was displeased without knowing why, until I realized my eyes were traveling a good ten inches back and forth - far more than is comfortable.
This is just such obviously bad web design - no site has full-width text. It's horrendous.
I really can't say enough, strongly enough, on this issue.

I, too, had no idea there even was a read/unread marker until I read this.
This was a solved problem - Google Reader did it the right way.
The TOR way is significantly worse.
