Comment (by humdinger):

 There's nothing better than a direct comparison. I'm now convinced my
 suggestion is not as nice as the other one. Moving to the corner/border
 that should be resized feels much more natural and is done fast enough.
 The occasional mis-navigation of the MMB version OTOH is a bit annoying.
 Maybe one gets better over time, but it doesn't seem to be worth it. So, I
 stand corrected and hope Ingo forgives me for causing him more work...

 The blue border selection isn't that nice, of course. With the S&T's red
 and the normal yellow tabs, Haiku becomes a bit... colourful. :)[[BR]]
 Maybe S&T and the Resizing Management should use the same colour scheme. I
 don't think that would lead to confusion. I've played around in
 WonderBrush a bit, and what I find quite pleasing - please don't hit me -
 is a discreet slow pulsing of borders/tab becoming slightly darker tinted.
 By having this kind of unobtrusive animation, the actual brightness-
 difference doesn't have to be as crass because the change draws the eye.
