Hm, sounds like installing ion3 would be an easier task.
ion3 is the WM of my choice, and it does exactly (or nearly) what you
describe, and some more. You can additionally set up different layouts
of your taste, for example with two columns or even more complex ones.
(I've a special layout for gimp where most windows fit into their own
frame.)
Never touch a window title bar anymore. No resizing, no moving around...

Simply brilliant. :)
