Well yes, of course you can have arbitrarily-shaped windows, but that
means you can only approximate the appearance of a bezel window with
your best guess, and it isn't future-proof if Apple decides to change
the appearance in a later version of the OS. For the same reason as
the introduction of standard template images, I think it would be
beneficial to have a standardized bezel window style.
