Title:
  wishlist: resize cursor should be ended depending on resize
  possibilities

Status in “gnome-desktop” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  The mouse cursor when indicating the edge of a frame (border of a
  window) always takes on the appearance of an arrow and a bar, ie,
  "=>|".  It is suggested there is a need for this symbol to convey more
  information; namely, whether the border can be moved in or out or
  whether it has reached either the minimum or maximum extent of its
  movement, ie, "|<=" or "=>|<=" or "=>|".

  It is suggested that, when resizing windows, if minimally sized on the
  relevant dimension, the arrow should be pointing in the direction the
  window can be expanded.  When a window can be resized up or down,
  there should be an arrow on either side of the bar; thereby indicating
  movement in either direction is possible.  Similarly, when a window
  has reached its maximum size, the arrow should be pointing in the
  direction in which the frame's border can be moved.
