AFAICT, in previous releases, the second change does not occur. Only the first
one does.

AFAICT, in previous releases you get exactly the opposite changes from when you
dragged the divider up: only the middle window is affected in both cases.

That is pretty consistent.  Whether it is generally better or not, I don't know.
But perhap it should be a user choice (option), in case some users prefer the
traditional behavior.
