Okay.  Yes, you're absolutely right.  And this is a blackbox issue. 
Blackbox is broke WRT windows that have decorations removed from them.
I've added code to bbkeys to allow decoration toggling (toggleDecor,
which will add or strip decorations from the currently-focused window)
and went as far as I can go. Blackbox's internals are broken also with
regards to being able to tell other apps what the decoration state of a
given window is.  I've patched blackbox to at least tell external
applications whether a given window is decorated or not, but it really
does no good because there's the other problem in which blackbox acts
like it's going to let you move or resize a now-undecorated window, but
doesn't really do it.

I've approached Raven (who responded to me, but it's been so long I
forget what was said) and nyz (who said that the version of KDE that he
runs doesn't have that issue  =:)  ) about this and it never went
anywhere.

So, Jeff, if you're out there, is there any update on where this falls
on the official blackbox TODO list?
