The problem is that I have no idea how many pixels it really occupies.
So my calculations for the no-scrollbar case are probably wrong.

And obviously such dividers should be always available so that one can

(1) mouse-drag window borders sideways in a human manner, and

(2) mouse-drag window borders up and down even in the absence of mode
    lines,

and ideally their width and background would be customizable.
