Describe the bug

The edges of the window can be dragged to resize the window, but when hovering over the edge the cursor does not switch to the resize symbol (unlike other processes indicating) it can be resized.

I initially thought the window could not be resized because of this.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the behavior in Lapce v0.3.1 on Linux and locate the window-edge hit testing and cursor handling. Done means the cursor changes to the appropriate resize symbol when hovering over each resizable edge, while edge dragging continues to resize the window.
