using mouse to adjust terminal size

SUMMARY
Same way we can change the focus from one terminal to another using shortcuts, it would be great if we can also resize the current terminal using some keyboard shortcuts.
This is the only feature Terminator offers that I miss in Konsole.

I opened the same issue in GitLab originally -> https://invent.kde.org/utilities/konsole/-/issues/39#note_688207

Jorge,

This is a nice issue and it's something that could help konsole.
This is, at the same time, something easy to implement, I wonder if you
would like to give it a try - and if so I'm quite happy to help you get
started.
If not, I'll also implement this, since it makes sense.

Best,
Tomaz

I would love to implement it myself, but I have no idea where to start :) .
I was checking the source code.. and there are a lot components.
I found in the ViewManager you declare most of the Actions & shortcuts, but from there, it is hard (for me) to understand what could be the component that should be resized once the action is triggered.
