I'm here to add my concern for this bug. I'm currently using a jaunty
netbook with a 1024x600 resolution and resizing windows "naturally"
(using my cursor on a window edge) is almost always an absolute chore if
not impossible. On my 1920x1200 desktop computer it's not quite as
difficult with my trackball but it's more difficult than it should be.

Now, I don't know if a patch that allows for border resizing is the
right step. Making the borders larger takes away from screen real
estate. Would it be possible to keep the borders at 1px while extending
the [invisible] "resize threshold" out 5 or 10 pixels on each side of
the border?

I haven't used KDE since they released version 4 [ick] but I don't
remember having any issues resizing windows with version 3.X - maybe the
gnome project can borrow their window resize code?
