Isn't that a very ignorant way of seeing it? If you're a developer, you're not just going to ignore certain resolutions if you want to reach out to as many people as possible. In particular since this is even a map/mod in a game that directly supports resolutions down to 5:4 ratio. If you however, don't care about publicity and popularity (or have a such less demanding interface that it never messes up), then I guess it's not a big deal.
But yeah, for the interface specifically, I'd go for an aspect ratio of 5:4 (which the only one seems to be 1280x1024, unless you run in a windowed mode. For a dialog interface to be 100% of it's original size, the resolution would be set to 1600x1280)
@Myself though, I run with 2 display monitors, one being 1920x1080 and the other being 1680x1050. Which one I play at differs on the occasion.
Edit: if you want some insight of resolutions there's a steam hardware survey collected here since April 2011

It do give the results that about 13% of the test subjects still have a 1280x1024 as display settings.
