I suppose it's those invisible borders which leave an 8 or so pixels
wide gap.  It's highly annoying, especially when you want to display two
frames side-by-side and yet another reason not to use Windows 10.  IIRC
the Autohotkey people had some sort of fix for it but maybe I
misremember.  GNOME shell has a similar problem BTW.
