Description

This was implemented on gtk in #587. This is at least somewhat complicated on mac; it isn't 100% clear what it should correspond to. If there is no window border on mac that means the window also is not resizable or moveable by default. Is that the intended behaviour? this needs to be clarified.

cc @Psykopear: exactly what is the intended behaviour of a window that has show_titlebar false? can that window be resized or moved? We may need to slightly rethink this..

Research direction
Investigate the GTK implementation referenced in #587 to understand expected behavior. Then clarify with the maintainer (@Psykopear) about the intended behavior on macOS when `show titlebar` is false, especially regarding resizing and moving. Review macOS windowing documentation to identify whether titlebar less windows can be moved/resized. Consider proposing a design that aligns with the existing GTK behavior while handling macOS constraints.
