Yep, sorry about that. I was typing from Gnome and I forgot where I was. 
When I start up my development environment my brain is usually on 
autopilot, so I tend not to notice things. I should be a bit more careful.

Some of the applications have a resize area on both the left and right 
lower corner (pan, for example). If you run Chrome without the system 
title bar and borders, you can resize it on any edge.

I've not played with all of the themes and decorations, but I found 
Checker theme to be particularly annoying :-p.

. . . . just my two cents.
