Comment 189 for bug 160311

I can't resist chiming in...

This bug/issue/behaviour is pretty aggravating. I had forgotten about it after changing the theme on lucid, and was reminded of it after a new maverick install.

Sure it's easy for us to fix, but for the average Joe it's simply yet another reason to switch back to a competitor.
Those who are thinking this should be ignored / pushed back any longer need to find several average Joes/Janes, and ask each to [try to] resize a window under the default theme on maverick using a laptop with a sensitive touchpad.
