True. Maybe the important question is "how badly it breaks the
application in other widgetsets?"
The functionality based on WMEnterSizeMove message is then missing in
other system.
Maybe it does not matter, the app is usable but some fancy resize
feature is missing.
I am not against adding it. I know there are widgetsets differences
already including non-supported properties.
