Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the macOS window-management and mouse-input code, then determine how modifier-held clicks should distinguish moving from resizing. Done means a modifier-held click anywhere in a window can consistently move or resize it without targeting an edge or corner.
