Agree. Especially with Oxygen windecos (which don't make a difference between 
window / border), it makes a lot of sense, since there's no indication where 
the window ends and the deco begins (a distinction that's very artificial in 
the first place).

I appreciate the feature when using the mouse, even more so with the touchpad 
(alt + touchpad button + drag is even harder), and it's a total lifesaver on a 
touchscreen (tried it, was surprises how much of a difference it made).

If we find concrete usability problems with it, I'd suggest talking to Hugo, 
he's been very avid in fixing all kinds of corner-cases.

Cheer,
