I think this is a beta2 bug which was fixed quite probably already before 
the final vista release. Beta releases work the way you describe. They make 
no sense so they get fixed.

I suppose you still only used ntfsresize, and no partitioning was involved, 
which could indeed cause bootability problems.

Let's not speculate until we know what the final Vista does.
