I am using TWM - Tiling Window Manager to put windows side by side properly
when comparing things like that. I am using that all the time. Need to fix
the shortcuts because I have to mouse around a bit too much at the moment.

I was thinking of adding windows sizing and placement icons in SystemWindow
top bar. In fact I want to have a kind of SystemWindow title bar plugin
system for adding all kinds of stuff there.
And then an optional bottom bar and maybe side bars... I somewhat managed
to get the concept working in a prototype and realized there is quite some
stuff to refactor to get things clean. Maybe this will be a feature for TWM
on Pharo6.
