Dont forget that the user application itself can detect resize attempts, and
can act accordingly, and OVERRIDE whatever you implement in the AppServer.
 In fact, most of the BeOS app's I've written have all overridden the
appropriate FrameResized method.  So in the end, all this work in the
AppServer would go to waste ...

PS - I'm also not a fan of full screen applications, unless it's a game,
where it really is full screen.
