Details:

As stated in summary:  with the current git release, the window manager is
being ignored for moving and resizing toolbox windows.  This causes unexpected
and likely unwanted behaviour, and is also visually inconsistent.

So far, I've noticed the following problems:

* Window snapping no longer works.
* Aero Snap-esque screen border resizing does not trigger.
* Moving a toolbox is visually inconsistent, drawing an outline instead of
allowing the WM to deal with it.
* Ignores compositing, which can cause other glitches. For example, sometimes
the compositor is used to speed resizing by scaling a texture instead of
redrawing the widgets.  Resizing a toolbox ignores this and redraws the
widgets constantly.  There are likely other problems related to this. 

I'm not sure which commit caused this, there were a lot of small commits by
achadwick when I merged.  My window manager is kwin, but I also tested with
metacity and had the same problems.

Otherwise, I like the changes made to the toolboxes. They look nicer overall,
and a couple visual glitches with the oyxgen-gtk theme have been fixed as
well.
