           Summary: Window resizing handle not present in many apps
           Product: Ubuntu
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: gnome-desktop
        AssignedTo: seb128 at ubuntu.com

The little resize handle in the lower right corner of windows, is not present in
a lot of programs.

Has it: nautilus, gedit, evince
Doesn't have it: firefox, evolution and most others

I think all gnome apps should have it, as it is an important clue at how to do
this and it makes resizing more comfortable, as there is a bigger area that can
be clicked to resize. Without it, it is really easy to miss the right area when
clicking/dragging, especially because when you click the mouse button often you
move the mouse a little as well.

(I guess there should be bugreports for all the apps that don't have it, but
that's too much to do right now for me)
