Default freezing windows

Has anyone gone through a winter yet? I have had issues with freezing windows.

The window needs to go up and down when opening and closing the door to clear the trim. Now that the weather is getting cold, I've had my first experience with the window freezing and not being able to close the door properly.

I am concerned this is a major design flaw for cold weather climates?

Default A thin smear of silicone spray/grease on the rubber seals should help, per other forum.
