There seem to be other 'hidden' resize options:

^A resize +
^A resize _

And how about:

^A resize \

I haven't tried other possibilities but I was wondering is a way to make
two vertical regions equal, i.e. the converse of:

^A resize =

As an aside, it would be nice if the delimiter between two vertical
regions was the same width as the the one between two horizontal
regions.

Instead, I have a rather wide band that is almost one character cell
wide as compared with the couple of pixels used to delimit two
horizontal regions.

Thanks,
