huynhhuu * r1016482 
workspace/trunk/KDE/kdebase/workspace/kwin/clients/oxygen/ (oxygen.h 
oxygenclient.cpp): 
 Revert r1009021 and r1009001 (which extend the clickable area of the window 
borders), because they interfere with window snapping.

We should brake this again in the future as we want to make the hit area of 
the bottom corner  bigger so we can also make the bottom frame smaller and 
save some space, right now we are wasting some pixels there and we could have 
them if we can make the hit area of corner stretch a bit into the shadow, 
"technically it is possible"    
its mostly a matter of adjusting the snapping.

If i recall correctly this was one of the problems in nitrogen, the hit area 
of of the corner was to small and that made it hard to click.
