it happens frequently - most of the time.

It "always" did this, but when I was very new to awesome, I didn't say
anything because I wanted to exclude my own configuration errors.

Except for colours, nothing that I'm aware of.

Mod4+Enter, then move the window, will almost always have the specified
effect.

If I move the window before resizing it, it will almost always get
smaller. After resizing it, it will get smaller only probably half
of the time.

It is sufficient to hold the mouse button, moving it is not required.

Basically, yes. I just did this with roxterm:

1. Mod4 + Enter
2. Hold down Mod4
3. Press the left mouse button (window gets one column narrower).
4. Release the left mouse button (window gets one column narrower).

Repeat 3+4 until the window is as small as the tab in the tab bar -
after that, it won't get any narrower.

It only affects columns, as far as I can see.

It gets smaller only on the horizontal axis, not on the vertical axis.

As I said, so far it looks like xterm and konsole don't get smaller in
any direction, only roxterm and gnome-terminal do.
