Bug Description

Natty has finally fixed the well-known window resizing bug! (1px borders that previously made resizing difficult) Unfortunately, the fix is only 75% complete: only the left, bottom and right (invisible) invisible borders have been "fattened" to make resizing easier. The top window border is still 1px large, making resize as difficult as ever.

An oversight or bug in the implementation? Possible - but please fix!

This issue is reproducible on both a vanilla and a fully-upgraded Natty install running the Unity interface.

nothing is missing this bug is awaiting input from design so as per
out convention for Unity bugs we set unity and unity(ubuntu) bugs as
incomplete.
