Comment (by humdinger):
In my opinion, the resize shortcut should not be changed. CTRL+ALT+... is
a kind of window management shortcut that should be universal. H,M,Z to
hide, minimize, maximize, Cursor keys to move between workspaces, left-
click to move and now right-click to resize.[[BR]]
Additional SHIFT is generally used as a modified behaviour, e.g. to take a
window with you to another workspace or, looking into a Tracker window
menu, to _Force_ identify or Close _all_ windows etc.
Delaying the highlighting until the mouse is moved would work for me
personally, but it might provoke another issue: a user may inadvertently
some times move the mouse while pressing CTRL+ALT and sometimes not. He
may wonder why a border highlights sometimes and sometimes it doesn't...
