Still the feature is being introduced. 

I think these drag handles are self explanatory just by looking at them and 
provide that necessary extra surface area for resizing and dragging windows.

and you might still be able to use part of the titlebar for dragging.

The plugin can even be turn off.

People will need to try to adapt to the behavior in the same way they had to 
adapt to some other stuff in unity or other DEs/OSs.

But is a young project and if you think it needs tweaking you can always 
suggest it and some already have:

But users don't expect to not be able to move a window using the title bar, and 
similarly, we can't expect them to know how to do it any other way.

they are going to incorporate it anyway so it would solve these dragging 
problems some mention with a few tweaks.

i think that this should activate by clicking any corner or optionally via a 
window control.

Couldn't you solve the draggable area problem by allowing users to move the 
window by dragging from anywhere on the title bar, including a menu item.

at some point it was mentioned that all "grey" areas in an application window 
should be draggable areas.


this would make a lot of sense to me.. 
Menus could show on release to prevent them from showing when a user drags the 
window.
indicator menus are aim-click-drag-release.this includes indicator-appmenu



so no, show on release is not a solution, so i think.
