I believe the supportsResize flag just got set to this value when the traits
structure was implemented initially. For the case at hand, a possibly simple
& slightly better solution would be to set this flag to true in the
osgviewer application itself in order to avoid breaking existing
applications that rely on this flag's current default value.

(I'm not trying to start another rhetoric debate here [sorry about the  
last one...], just trying to understand the design decisions...)

Thanks,
