<div><br>Sorry, but I'll add a non-dev comment hear, rather an user one. <br><br>In my (always humble) opinion, resize of applets in the desktop should be made by dragging sensitive edges of the handle, that is, just like normal windows. I don't know if this has been discussed before and was rejected because any technical, usability, practical reason, but in the user perspective I feel it the most "natural" way to resize the applet. I think lancelot resizes the same way, right?<br>
<br>Other than that, I find the relative resizing proposed (specially with logarithmic algorithm) really interesting and a thing that, when implemented will give the desktop a natural feeling of "just flow"<br></div>
