Public bug reported:

In Lucid, with an Radiance theme changing the horizontal window size is
a real nightmare - there is only a one-pixel wide space when the mouse
icon changes to the one indicating a possibility of changing the window
size! For vertical size it's 5 pixels for the bottom and 4 for the top
(I guess 5 pixels would be the optimal size).

My notebook has a native 1440x900 resolution on a 15,4'' screen. Just
imagine how it must piss people off when they use 1900x1080 resolution
on 15,6'' screens (yes, there are such screens, e.g. Dell ships such
ones).

As I don't see another way of changing window size, it is really a
usability drawback.
