The current behavior is (mostly) consistent -- LMB initiates moving the
window and RMB initiates as resize.
The only inconsistency is 1. a LMB on the resizer corner will perform a
resize 2. RMB on the title tab does nothing. That does have logic as it
allows people with single button pointer devices to perform both actions
and it is limited to very specific parts of the window.
I vehemently oppose changing this on the basis of "poor discoverability"
and the current visual cues when using CTRL ALT.
