Hello,

skimming through byorgey's bug swipe, I noticed that #207 applies to MouseResizableTile as well.

As was discussed on IRC, this patch turns out to break MRT when used in combination with a desktop environment, because it will lower the draggers to the very bottom of the stack, hidding them behind things like Gnome's Desktop for example. I'm applying the attached patch instead, which lets the core know about the draggers so they can be restacked correctly. This should also solve the original problem (draggers being on top of floating windows), without this un-intended side effect. Note: As a similar fix was applied to DragPane, that layout might also not work correctly anymore in combination with a desktop environment. I haven't looked into it much so far. Regards, Jan
