Bleh.. the kIRC MDI code is a bit more advanced.  It has resize cursors
when you move the mouse over a border, it also makes it harder for menus
to clobber windows and harder for windows to clobber their parent.

This is what needs to be replaced in kIRC.  The MDI stuff while hacky
works well, the MDIWindows OTOH are just ick (but I'd still have to use em
with KToolBoxMgr..).

Oh well.. I guess this isn't MFC ;)
