Add ability to set Max-Width on a widget

Experience Builder is missing a pretty huge CSS property and that's "max-width". Currently, a widget's width can either be fixed or some percentage of it's parent's width. But what if I want a widget to have a maximum width but shrink horizontally if needed? The closest thing EB has to this is the max page width setting for scrolling pages, but this doesn't quite solve the problem. EB would be a much more viable website builder if it had this one property. Please?

I would argue it's missing quite a few, but this would be a welcome addition. It can be very tough to account for all possible screen sizes and uses, and this would really help to make sure things don't get wonky.

@ZachBodenner Agreed. Coming from a web-dev background, I find it very frustrating how many very basic style properties are missing. Really wish Esri would let us add a style tag to the head and assign our own classes to widgets... but that's for another post.
