Since absolute/fixed positioning is the only (?) way to simplate frames, this poses a problem. Perhaps what is needed is some rule that if there are two resizable edges at the same ___location, they 'merge' and are moved together. Of course, that requires defining 'same ___location.' It would also be nice to be able to move one side and not the other, so the resizable edges look like (for example, to simulate [1]): | | ---| | | I'm not sure if this is in the proposal you mention.
