That has been discussed a while ago on this list. There should
be only one way todo things, if it is efficient for any purpose.
Because there's also a geom file for each client, one can also
resize with keyboard, though there are no default shortcuts,
because that is not intended (the quadrant-based approach is the
most efficient I have seen so far, that's why we have it in
wmii).

Such things have been solved already in hg tip. During the fact
that I still hunt a nasty bug with clients which are tagged with
more than one tag or with *, I wasn't able to release rc1 (aka
Tschernobyl) yesterday ;(((
