Same answer as Odd, I do same sort of program, I do an AES and we can use to
resize windows from any corner of windows or side. This is not new, Eric Reboux
windframe for Magic already do this for a long time, perhaps is it possible in
NAES I don't know (never use it), XAAES do it and since is start MyAeS too.

Notice a lot of software could not need a specific message if they don't think
that only 2 coordinate could be change on WM_MOVED or WM_RESIZED, unfortunatly,
it's not the case, and actually all AES do a WM_MOVED and WM_RESIZED to solve
this problem, some time this is not very beautifull on to see on screen, it's
why I agree to support new message for this, if software wan't it, for other we
continue to send 2 messages.
