This is a feature. Now the window resizing and moving over other windows do not flicker at all (smooth and fast decorations). I don't think it is possible to have both the old look and not the constant border redrawing on interactive Resize. Yes, it is sad, but flickering is more annoying, I don't even want to recall how ugly it was. So although I would definitelly like to have the way to define border images nicely in the future, I think this may be done after 2.6.x.
