I would rather leave it up to the user to set Emacs.*.shadowThickness
correctly.  This "DWIM" behavior leads to very confusing behavior for
someone trying to set the resource, which is also why most other X
programs don't have any resources that behave this way.

Thanks, but I don't think this is right for Emacs.  Closing.
