The resize control should go _behind_ the window, not in front of

What about resizing windows where that corner, or the whole edges, or even all edges are are already at a screen edge/corner?

My current identi.ca status is a pet peeve of mine: many applications try to remember their size, and then forget their maximized/restored status, or possibly full-screen status. The result is that you can open a program, maximize, close, and come back to it later... then it'll look maximized, but not quite be, so some part of the window ends up obscured by a panel. Evince is the latest offender here.
