Bug Description

the window manager plugin should allow window resizing, something like:

  <select window> resize <type new size in geometry format>
  or
  resize <type new size in geometry format> <select window>

Geometry format is the one used by all X applications WIDTHxHEIGHT+X+Y,
in example, 1024x768+0+0 will give you a window of 1024x768 in the top left
coorner of your desktop.
It also be nice to support an extended format like, WIDTHxHEIGHT=align
being "align" combinations of top|bottom|left|right|centered, and partials,
like: WxH, +X+Y, =align, to allow basic keyboard based window management.

To complete this feature a new command or another format modifier
should be added to move windows across viewports (virtual desktops) by
viewport number, or viewport name if available.

Thank you very much for such awesome piece of software.

Dave, why don't we take plugin feature requests? They should just be filed against do-plugins, not do core.
