And my .02 worth, why not make the border the sizing gadget ? If you wanted
to sorta OpenLook(tm) like you could draw your corners like so ;

Where the double lines are either a different color (pen 3?) or simply a
different line pattern. The benefits of having sizing gadgets in all 4 corners
is obvious ( you save a window move if your window is in the same corner of
the screen that the sizing gadget is in the window. (lower right by default)).
If you wanted to be really tricky you could use the other part of the border
(between the sizing gadgets) to drag the window around. This has the advantage
of being easy to do, and takes up very little screen real estate. 

Oh and for Peter, you only need (1) Front to back gadget if you think about
it, so you could save some space there as well.
