Bug Description

light-themes 0.1.8.10, compiz 1:0.9.4-0ubuntu7, Ubuntu Natty
light-themes 0.1.8.23, compiz 1:0.9.5.92+bzr2791-0ubuntu1, Ubuntu 11.10 beta 1

1. Resize a window by dragging its left, right, or bottom edge.
2. Try to resize the same window by dragging its top edge.

What happens:
1. The margin for resizing is several pixels wide.
2. The margin for resizing is only one pixel wide.

What should happen:
2. The margin for resizing the top edge is the same as for resizing any of the other edges.

Currently it works, because in bug #733431 ("Windows lack borders: visually unpleasant and leaves only one option to resize") we reverted to a 1px border to let Unity-2D catch up. The setting in the light-themes configuration file itself is:

  <padding left="5" right="5" bottom="5"/>

If the resize border at the top should be added this could be simply extended to also state 'top=5'.

As far as I can tell, this bug report is not missing any information, so it shouldn't be Incomplete.

Bug 733431 seems to be unrelated. It doesn't mention having a different border for different sides at all.

Setting to Invalid as I can't reproduce it here on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.
