[Bug 953832] [NEW] window resizing from edge or bottom corner is now much more difficult

 

Public bug reported:

With the upgrades yesterday of compiz source it's now extremely hard to resize most windows from an edge or bottom right corner
Reverting all & the resize returns to expected ease.

I'm not saying it's impossible, just considerably more difficult, particularly with bottom right corner
Using a touchpad on a laptop it can take multiple attempts to get just the right spot where previously there was a larger area
