Resizable popups and panels in Firefox 3.7

One thing we really missed in XUL was the ability to capture the mouse movements on the whole screen. Neil Deakin worked on that and introduced setCapture() and releaseCapture() on elements. He also worked on enabling the resizer element to work correctly in popups and panels but it's buggy at this time so I used setCapture/releaseCapture for the new version of Webchunks to enable resizable popups:

Looks nice but the great news I read here is that webchunks is still in dev! I miss it soooo much in FF 3.5.

Mamie: It works fine in 3.5, you just need something to force Firefox into letting you use it. I'm on 3.5 and using WebChunks myself.
