Definitively!  Undecorated frames should behave like normal frames -
just without decorations.

When can you remove the decorations?  Does it flicker when you do that?

Why do you think so?  I never looked into the NS event set but I would
expect to receive the usual map, focus-in and visibility notifications.
Nothing that would allow to derive that the window cannot be resized
any more.  Can you add the decorations later, resize the frame and
remove the decorations afterwards?
