Except... I /want/ border snap.  I just want it to snap so the decoration 
is shown too.

Setting that to zero does indeed let me position the window to show the 
decoration (thanks for pointing that out, I generally understood it but 
as a result hadn't actually tried it to see what the interaction was with 
the new change in behavior), but then I lose the snap-to-border effect 
that's the main thing the option configures, and that I want to keep.  I 
(and I guess the other users in-thread) just need it to snap to the 
border but still show the decoration when it does so, and that now 
appears to be impossible.
