The handle would not increment by steps of 1% or anything like that, rather than "snap in place" while being dragged, allowing the user to select between the same predefined widths as before ...just in a way that is more direct/visual, and where the user can quickly configure region widths without having to open/close dialogs, and click though multiple links/buttons to achieve the same result.
