Description
This month on "Stealing ideas from the VsCode release notes":
We don't yet support resizing panes with the mouse (that's #992). We also don't support configuring the pane border color (that's #3061 / #3327).
BUT WHEN WE DO, it would be cool to have a configurable color for the hover on the pane borders. So you would know when you've got a pane border hovered, and that it's actionable.
Also neat would be if it had that Fluent "glow"? though I suppose "reveal focus" is "xbox only", so maybe not that.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the referenced VS Code sash hover-border example and the related issues #992, #3061, and #3327. This proposal depends on pane mouse resizing and configurable pane borders being available first; done would mean supporting a configurable hover color for actionable pane borders, with the proposed Fluent-style glow considered separately.
