#4 XFCE edge handles too small
In the default XFCE WM, it is difficult to grab the handle of the edges of windows to resize them. Please consider changing the XFCE configuration to increase the grip size.
I am aware of ALT+DRAG_RIGHT_CLICK, but the issue seems to be with the XFCE theme.
Answer here has a solution https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/364531
Please distribute a default theme or user configuration that increases the width of the resize handles.
GtkWindow::resize-grip-height
GtkWindow::resize-grip-width
The configuration of one's windowing environment is a rather personal thing. I'm sure that 10 people would have 10 different opinions on the subject. What I'd rather do is put a link in the RELEASE_NOTES indicating how one could make such a change, and then leave up to the user.

I won't argue with you because I agree; a width of 3 pixels is better than 1 and won't get in the way of anything, they don't need to be super wide, just large enough to grab on to. Feel free to close/wontfix/whatever you like Andy.
If one picks a different theme, the edge width of the window might change.
Try: Settings -> Window Manager and pick a different theme.
Since this is a fairly personal choice, I'm not going to bake anything into AHRL to specifically address this.
