This class is an alternative window class for MUI. The standard one
is very awkward in certain situations, especially with small windows.

You know the problems:  a window is not draggable because border gadgets
have 'eaten' the titlebar or it looks extremly ugly with borders and
gadgets bigger than the usable area!

The CompactWindow.mcc solves these problems:
 - it uses Tiny Font for titlebar so it can fit even in small windows
   (don't forget to set tiny font in MUI prefs!)
 - titlebar can even become vertical when the window is narrow
 - no additional gadgets
 - no useless borders
 - entire border can be used for sizing
 - context menu gives additional functionality in place of
    missing gadgets
 - close and size gadget can be disabled
 - you can set preferred titlebar type (horizontal/vertical)
