jQuery resize vs QCubed Resize

I'm trying to integrate jQuery for the resize actions, but there is a huge difference in how jQuery and QCubed are handling resizes.

basic resize (as demonstrated on the jQuery UI) is working great with QCubed!

But the example:

http://examples.qcu.be/assets/_core/php/examples/advanced_ajax/resize.php

This uses a 3-panel split. For jQuery, this would require an additional plugin like this one:
http://methvin.com/splitter/
You can look at the examples from the splitter there.

Question:
- Is basic resize what we want in the core (I would say yes, of course, since it is basic jQuery functionality).
- do we need this 3panel split in the core? If so, do we use the jQuery plugin and integrate it in the core? I have not found a license file. We could make it a seperate plugin ourselves and distribute it as such, and thus removing this functionality from the core.

Looking forward to your feedback.

Kristof - thanks so much for doing this!

1) Definitely agreed that we do want the basic resize in the core
2) I'd say don't do the 3-panel split in the core. We can add it / have someone else add it as a plugin later.

Yeah, this is one case that seems pretty custom-hacked for QCodo, and I don't really like the approach of making QPanel have hard-coded entries like AddUpperControlToResize anyhow.

So yeah, I'd say leave this to a plugin / other method to reproduce should anyone really desire this layout capability.
