That depends if the QDockWidget is using native decorations or not, see 
[1].

When not using native decos, Qt::FramelessWindowHint is used and 
resizing is done via QWidgetResizeHandler, which has 4px of margin [2],
but I think only inwards, since if the mouse is outside the window won't 
receive the event. Maybe needs mouse grab.
