That reminds me... all X windows have a "resize unit" property built in...
why not just use that for resizing the window?  Then it just works
naturally for all classes of apps, xterms and emacs included.

I would modify your suggestion to: if the resize-unit is set with
defresizeunit, then use it, otherwise use the resize-unit property set
on the window itself.
