awesome: how do you resize the smaller tiles?

I just can't find the answer to this (google, awesome's wiki, awesome's IRC channel). Let's say I have the following layout:

11111111222
11111111222
11111111333
11111111333
11111111444
11111111444

The "1"s represent the first window, etc. I can change the width of the windows by using mod4+(h or l or right mouse button) which drags the separator between window 1 and the others, but I just can't figure out how to change the relative height of the smaller windows, so that they might look like this:

11111111222
11111111333
11111111333
11111111333
11111111333
11111111444

Think of the way that vim hangles tiles and how you can just drag the separators around to resize them as you like. How do I do that in awesome?

Thanks.

I don't think you can resize individual windows...

edit: Atleast I don't think you can. My understanding is that when you have a layout like that, you have the 'main' window, and all the other windows are secondary, and they're just.... there...

Thanks heleos. That's what I suspected but wanted to get confirmation. It's too bad... it would have been nice to have a playlist take 2/3 of a column for example.
