My guess is that this is intentional so that you don't accidently resize while renaming or opening AppTabs (or the other way around). If so, could someone who knows for sure spell it out and mark this RESOLVED (wontfix) or NEW otherwise?
Yes, this is indeed the intent.

Well, this does actually make things difficult for arranging and resizing things, as you always have to take into account that can only resize in the SE direction.

Thus, it is pretty much impossible to move groups to the SE side of the screen (for example) before resizing them. You have to resize the group before you move it, which can force you to do a lot more thinking and planning than you should have to.

I ask that this situation be reanalyzed.
I second that. I wanted to raise a bug for the same issue. If there's room for confusion, please consider making them resizable from 3 corners, and leaving the top left corner alone.
