Description Stephan Sokolow 2009-02-04 01:19:28 UTC 
Version:           unknown (using 4.2.00 (KDE 4.2.0), Gentoo)
Compiler:          x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.25-gentoo-r7-20080501

Non-corner screen edges are too sensitive. If I use them, I end up triggering them accidentally while aiming for corners. However, at the same time, corners shouldn't be made any more sensitive because then I'd accidentally trigger corners while trying to show my auto-hidden system tray and clock. I suggest a (potentially configurable) dead zone separating active corners and active edges.

If the dead zone is to be configurable, it might be a good idea to do something similar to Plasma's panel sizing GUI. That'd make it easy to use, good looking, and familiar enough to not require explanation.
