I don't want to limit Emacs to anything... but not everything can be bound 
to a key or a mouse event.  Perhaps this could become a defcustom, 
defaulting to t?  I tried to understand what Clément had in mind, and IIUC 
my understanding was right.

I will not use that feature, but I tried both frame-inhibit-implied-resize 
nil and t, and I'd guess that t is what most users would want.
