Fresh 12.04 LTS install, freshly updated, & it's not difficult to resize
- it's totally impossible. Zero pixels activate the corner icon or
height-width resizing icon. Tweaking compiz does nothing. Noticed the
problem with eog but it's universal - & changing themes doesn't help
either.
Xfce gets it right: useable borders & a corner grabber. Surely this can
be done, with or without a visible border.
Whoever set the status as "low" is dreaming: this kind of massive - &
needless - headache over very basic & vital desktop activity is exactly
the kind of absurdity that leads people to uninstall Ubuntu & never
return. After more than a year there's still no fix yet? This needs to
be a top priority to fix if you expect new users to stick with this OS.

Bug description:
In unity-2d it seems that window borders are only 1 pixel wide and are
therefore very difficult to grab for window resize.
In 3D it seems that a shadow extends the width of the border so the problem
does not occur.
