Well, I was thinking, I really don't need CVS access.  I'll just send you the
patch.  Check it out, see what you think.  I probably won't be contributing
much code in the next few months, so I don't need write access yet.  God
willing, one day I'll have time for it ;)

Here's the patch file for cmdiarea.cpp with the autotile and autocascade stuff
updated and the resizeEvent code set to update the windows if necessary.
