Window Resizer Grip Inventory

[Steven Garrity <stevelist silverorange com>]

My new pet peeve in Gnome is the inconsistent application of the 
window-resizer grip in the bottom right corner of windows.
The Gnome Human Interface Guidelines state in the Statusbars section 
(file:///home/steven/Desktop/hig-2.0/controls-status-bars.html) that 
statusbars should:
"Provide a drag handle in the bottom right corner of the status bar of 
resizeable windows. Subclasses of GtkStatusbar should use the drag 
handle provided by that class. A reimplementation of a status bar, which 
is discouraged, should also reimplement the GtkStatusbar drag handle in 
both appearance and function."
I've done a quick and informal inventory of which apps in my Gnome-based 
Fedora Core 2 setup do or don't have the resizer grip. This is not a 
comprehensive inventory - I really just ran through my applications menu 
and took some notes:
Has it:
 - Nautilus
 - GEdit
 - Printer Queue
 - Straw RSS Reader
 - Liferea RSS Reader
 - Totem
 - Sound Juicer
 - Sound Recorder
 - GConf Editor
 - System Log

Doesn't Have it:
 - Character Map
 - Dictionary
 - GtKam
 - Gimp
 - gThumb
 - Eye of Gnome
 - Gnome PDF Viewer
 - Pan Newsreader
 - Epiphany
 - OpenOffice.org
 - Rhythmbox
 - Firefox/Thunderbird (244787)
 - File Roller
 - Yelp

This is just a rough list, and not all of these might be up-do-date, but 
it is clear that there is a bit of a mix here.
Can (and should) we establish more clear guidelines on the use 
resize-gripper?
Thanks,
