Frankly, I'm not a fan of this since it cannot be implemented in a clean way. The problem is that some programs expect a fixed size "sizing" gadget, i.e. exactly 11 pixels high. If that is not true, intuition would have to guess and make adjustments to what the program requests, with possible side effects.

So, for example, the workbench, the console, ViNCEd are fine anyhow and can take care of a sizing gadget of a different than the default size, but Golded, for example, cannot.

I personally would prefer if programs would indicate how to size the sizing gadget, and whether they can handle resized sizing gadgets correctly. Unfortunately, that is always the case.
