They are optional. It is a hard question to decide what feedback is
needed. If you want to comment on this you are very welcome. (Maybe read
the doc for resize-windows, it tries in the example to explain what is
going on. But of course it should be intuitive.)
One might for example argue that the colors should not be that
disturbing. My reply would be that it perhaps does not matter that much
since those colors are only used shortly during windows resizing. And
that it is quite good to get a feeling (through the visual feedback)
that the Emacs for a short moment does something different then normally.
Or that the (short) mouse pointer jumping is disturbing. It may be
helpful for the beginner I would say. He/she might not notice otherwise
and perhaps even have to read the documentation. Turn the jumping off if
you do not like it.
But there are probably better arguments from your side.

I preferred to leave those bindings out, but the user can easily add
them by customizing winsize-let-me-use.

Hm. I started with a global minor mode (or really from the beginning
with a loop while testing). I have not much against that (if you put it
in emulation-mode-map-alist). The key bindings should be rather similar
though.
