I wonder who ever decided to have the window borders not configurable.

I work on a large screen and easily get RSI problems when I use the mouse too much.
Thus I use a wacom tablet with a stylus pen additionally as a mouse enhancement.
I always work with multiple windows and frequently rearrange them to suite my needs.

I also use focus follows mouse WITHOUT autoraise as I want to be able to cut and paste from a lower window to a top window without windows changing their order. I also want to type in a terminal which is half covered from firefox withouth the terminal coming to top and burying the browser text.

That said I want to resize my windows at ANY border not just in the corners or from the title bar.

On KDE 2 which I used for years this was no problem but with latest desktops the ergonomics seem to be overruled by designers.
I wish every GUI designer be at least 50 years of age so that eyesight degrading and parkinsons symptoms are on the verge :(
