This is a method to gain full control over windowresizing by combining i3wm's mode function and a simple script.
i3get is used to determine the floating state of the window. i3get is part of the i3ass suite that can be found on github:

The polished version of this script is called i3Kohrne, and is somewhere in my scripts repo on github.
