With today's pixel-displays, we'd like to avoid all scaling, stretching, etc. done by the panel itself. ie. like Rolf said, always output from the computer at panel resolution, with 1:1 pixel mapping. Video would be scaled, but not the OSD.
On my TV video looks better at 1280x720 than at the native resolution of 1360x768 for two reasons:
Its picture mode presets are optimised for video in 720p modes and PC/text in 1360x768.
Nearly everything I watch is 25fps and the TV only supports 60Hz at 1360x768.
OTOH ISTM even 576 line SDTV looks better displayed in a 720p mode than in 576p.
