The floating widget is like a toolwindow, similar to compose a message. And I'm
very happy that an accidental press of escape doesn't close this dialog (using
Thunderbird as well). Resizability is permitted for dialogs in LibreOffice,
though I dont find the guideline anymore (wait, it was a discussion on the
mailing list [1]), in order to keep the content at place.

First of all, thanks for sharing the guidelines Heiko.
I'm pretty agree about all except for the usage of escape. When I teach
computer, I always explain that escape is used inside the window to close
floating window, menu and dialog. For example, on Thunderbird, escape could
close a message window or on LibreOffice 6.0 when I open the save dialog, I
could close it with escape.
IMO, we should let floating windows resizable. I don't understand what is the
problem.
Best regards,
Alex.

Based on https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=87239 I drafted a
guideline for floating widgets at

and opinion is welcome.
