As mentioned above, the Ambiance theme in Ubuntu 10.04 has a 5-pixel
bottom border; and the corner regions of this border (a region of about
5-by-15 pixels -- I'm not sure) is usable for grabbing to resize the
window.

However, the newer version (1.7) of the light-themes package currently
in maverick testing gives Ambiance a bottom border of just 1 pixel. So
the useful 5-by-15 corner region is now gone, replaced by a 1-by-15
region (unusable by me).

For ubuntu-light-themes, please give this an "Importance" other than
"Low". Until window managers change, theme designers have to take into
account what the elements of the user interface are for, not just what
they look like. Maybe my car would look better without a steering wheel
...
