I think both additions would be very nice! Resize by dragging would come
in very handy when trying out the best size for a new resolution. The
right thing would be (IMO) to allow resizing by mouse dragging to the
standard sizes AND to a custom size by mouse dragging plus keyboard
modifier (shift or ctrl).
