What do you think about a resize that works like this:

When you click "alt mouse2" and then move the mouse left, the window
grows to the left, and then if you move the mouse right without
releasing the mouse button the window grows smaller. And if your initial
mouse movement is right, the window will grow to the right, etc...

so the resize action will start immediatly upon mouse movment, without
having to touch a border first, and without warping the cursor to the
border.

do you think this would be easy to implement, or would it require some
major rewriting?
