Is there any way to still grow floating mplayer windows without the
mouse?
That's an interesting problem. The aspect ratio algorithm always
fits the window to the largest size possible in the given
rectangle, which works fine for the mouse, but is clearly
problematic with the keyboard. I guess I'll have take the aspect
ratio hint into account for keyboard resizes.
