I don't think NSWindow has a method of allowing/disallowing window resize. I
don't think IB has one either. I believe the way it is done behind the
scenes is to set the minimum size and maximum size to the same value. This
would have the effect of disallowing, while setting min/max to other
arbitrary values would allow resize. I think this approach might hide the
resize control, but I don't recall.

You could also have a delegate implement -windowWillResize:toSize:, but it
might not be elegant.
