It seems that this functionality to conform to Fitt's Law as you
suggested becomes very easy if I were to use the kcommondecoration
construct.  However that isn't included in KDE 3.4.  It's only in CVS as
far as I can tell.
This makes it difficult in the interim if people would like to use it
with that dependency and also difficult to maintain. I could write the
functionality without using kcommondecoration, but why "reinvent the
wheel".
So is it safe to assume that I can code knowing that I will later port
it to the new api, which will provide that?
Or, is it required for inclusion into kdeartwork?
