Ideally, shouldn't the window manager be able to tell if a window is
resizable or not and decorate the corners of its frame accordingly,
rather than adding something that takes up space in the window itself
(and is somewhat misleading anyway since you may or may not be able to
resize the window from other corners too, depending on the WM/theme)?
