From metacity README :
Q: Why no wireframe move/resize?
A: Also in rationales.txt. Because it has low usability, and is a pain
   to implement, and there's no reason opaque move/resize should be a
   problem on any setup that can run a modern desktop worth a darn to
   begin with.


Read +all+ the README before flaming Havoc.

And keep in mind that you can use another WM.
I use Icewm :-)
