What _is_ the "old structure" when resizing opaquely? It might be
easiest to store window sizes as fractions. When resizing a frame, the
fractions don't change (so the internal window configuration snaps to
the closest integral value). When resizing individual windows, the
fractions are made whole again, matching the character positions of the
frame.
Note that storing stuff in that manner also allows repeated toggles of
tool-bar-mode and similar to revert to the original frame configuration
painlessly since the outer window edges (which can't be repositioned
within a frame) retain the original fractions indefinitely as long as
the frame itself is not resized manually.
