Well, OK.  A few days, 2 months, it's about the same thing, right?
Anyway, it's committed now.

This should be revisited to add either a flag or a special Threshold
value to avoid the issue entirely and always OpaqueResize, especially
since I suspect that's the very common case anyway.  What's the
feeling on the matter?  I think adding a new keyword for Always would
be an unnecessarily verbose way around it.  3 options present
themselves for special Threshold values.

1) 0.  It's possible that there's some side effect of setting
   OpaqueResize that some people desire, without wanting windows to
   actually ResizeOpaque'ly, though I can't think of what it could be.

2) 100.  Assume 100% really means 100%.  This could cause issues in
   the case of resizing bigger than the presumptive screen size, when
   somebody really does want to wireframe past that.

3) 1000.  This is what ctwm initializes it to if there's no setting
   sitting around in a config file.  We can assume that it's infinity.

   3a) >= 1000.  Just in case somebody gets the idea that
       $REALLYBIGNUM should be used.


I find myself leaning toward (3).
