Demonstation of the issue with KWin
SUMMARY
Some programs don't limit size of it's windows so user could accidentally
resize them to unusable state.
Primary example is LibreOffice
([bugreport](https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=151870) at
LibreOffice bugtracker)
Issue is reproducible on both X11 and Wayland sessions. I've also tried other
desktop environments. On GNOME X11 it's more or less the same but with GNOME
Wayland or Windows 10 minimum size is limited to a headerbar height.
KWin rule is a very nice and simple workaround for this issue but still would
be great to have some safe defaults.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Launch LibreOffice Calc
2. Drag diagonally by some corner
OBSERVED RESULT
Window resized to tiny size so I'm enable to close it with a left click. I have
to use context menu (Alt+F3, right click on taskbar) Meta+RMB resize.
EXPECTED RESULT
Some sensible minimum size limit so user could easily use window controls, drag
window, resize it back etc
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
