For clarity for the newcomers here, the resizeStack message is sent 
continuously on OS X when the liveResizing is set to true.  The default 
value for the liveResizing property is false, which was only helpful on 
Classic but on modern systems looks odd.

To help make it easier to create apps which better meet user 
expectations, I've submitted a request to have liveResizing on by default:

Along these lines, it would be helpful and more consistent if the 
moveStack message were sent continuously on OS X as it is on Win, and 
I've submitted a request for that as well:
<http://quality.runrev.com/qacenter/show_bug.cgi?id=4846>

Please consider voting for these if they seem useful to you.
