FWIW, the reason I wanted to disable it was that I was often moving windows 
around when I just wanted to resize the panes inside a window. This happens if 
I do not precisely drag the divider (between two panes) but rather a few 
pixels above the divider. What happens in this case is that the whole window 
moves (often un-maximises and moves). Personally, I found it frustrating.

Cheers,

Alvin
