I would like to propose a change to the system sizing gadget. The way it
is now, the user is too limited in the directions he/she can alter the
window. When trying to right-justify a window of a certain size, it can
become quite a chore. Resize-drag-resize-drag- etc. This is one thing that
I like in MS Windows (gak), that you can drag *any* corner around to resize
the window. I'm not necessarily proposing that that method be proposed, just
something slightly more flexibly than the current version.
I also would like to see what a previous poster proposed: visual display of
the window borders while resizing (would that really be much of a problem to
implement? I wouldn't think so).
