Positioning the window without a Handle

It is possible but I don't recommend it. You can detect a mouse down event, then detect mouse move events and reposition the window whenever the mouse moves.

I did this with the UAK launcher, but later changed it to use a regular titlebar. It is possible to drag the window out of the desktop and lose it. The window does not appear in the system menu bar. 

Just use the default system titlebar. Your user will appreciate it. Even Adobe's homemade titlebar doesn't work very well.
