Since absolute/fixed positioning is the only (?) way to simplate frames, this poses a problem. Perhaps what is needed is some rule that if there are two resizable edges at the same location, they 'merge' and are moved together. Of course, that requires defining 'same location.' It would also be nice to be able to move one side and not the other, so the resizable edges look like (for example, to simulate [1]): | | ---| | | I'm not sure if this is in the proposal you mention.
