Resize Adjacent Windows features

I know that multitouch ships with the basic features of Rectangle, but can the "resize adjacent windows" feature be added to multitouch? It is a really nice quality of life feature to have with a window management software in general.

Thanks for the feedback. I have plans to do this, but it is part of a large task of bringing a lot of Rectangle Pro functionality over to Multitouch. Because this is a large task, it's going to be a while before I get a large block of time to spend on it.

As I read this a few times now, wouldn't it make sense to put the Multitouch Features just within Rectangle Pro?

Multitouch is 50% more expensive than RecanglePro but doesn't see kind of development.

In general, gesture functionality can be quite difficult to get right for every user, and pulling that into Rectangle Pro would increase the maintenance burden substantially. I've found that it's best for Multitouch to have more stability due to the inherent difficulty in supporting it. Also, I've always liked Multitouch the way it is and would unhappy to sunset the current app in favor of a combined "kitchen sink" style of app. I choose features purposefully, and that's why Rectangle Pro and Multitouch are separate apps.

By "bringing a lot of Rectangle Pro functionality over to Multitouch", I actually mean packaging up more of the source code to share between the two, not necessarily exposing all of the Rectangle Pro functionality within Multitouch.
