The only argument i have is bug #323710
Declare it WONTFIX and i'll discard the RR - personally i don't care too much.

This patch wil hold for the bottom corners on most setups, though ;-P

MoveArea all the time: hello bug #323710

Since the focus of bug #323710 is the ability to only quartertile on the very screencorners, a special \
case will allow for both (on price of facing bug #322493, ie. the inability to tile under certain \
conditions)

Alternatives:
- base the area on strut sizes and mouse position relative to the window
- shift back the window against the movement direction until the relative mouseposition allows for \
tiling.

The MoveArea is however likely more correct anyway, since it matches the area where the window is tiled \
(though that&#39;s nitpicking as this is only about ratios)</pre>  </blockquote>
