Thanks for getting it fixed for Natty. Please backport that fix to 10.04LTS and 10.10.

I know it says "no more comments needed," but I'm not certain that is totally accurate. With one hand having a small tremor, and the other not, I guess I qualify under both usability and accessibility. So I add my voice to others who have signalled this as a problem.

I love the default theme, but every time I get near a window border to resize, it's an exercise in frustration, carpal tunnel, and vocabulary building. Now I see I'm not alone in having this problem. Sometimes it makes me ready to go back to KDE or to fire up my Redmond windowing machine. And it doesn't help sell the Meerkat to my wife, and help to bring her from the dark side of that OS which must not be named.

Speaking of which, just because Windows XP or 7 or whatever has a certain feature as part of its user interface, that does not automatically make it a bad thing. They've thrown a gazillion dollars into developing their OS versions, and with that much money and staffing, they are bound to get some things right.
