Unfortunately there is no code to share. I have no clue how to actually do 
this. In principle one can certainly paint the handles with qpainter and just 
redraw the whole thing if the user presses the left mouse button and moves 
the mouse, in the same way the line drawing tool draws its lines. But this 
sounds really ugly to me.

A qwidget would have the advantage that it does all the mouse handling and 
repainting stuff on its own. In kolourpaint you can resize selected regions 
with handles. I tried to find the relevant code in colorpaint, but I couldn't 
so far.
