Thanks for the simple test case.

This looks like a problem in the same area as [1], where AWT tries to 
detect what WM it running under, but doesn't really understand about 
non-reparenting WMs and messes up...

This looks like a bug in AWT in that occurs with non-reparenting WMs 
(something like: learning the size of the "insets" (size of window frame 
and decorations) the first time a ConfigureNotify event occurs makes it 
move the window back to it's original location...)

You can see some of what's happening if you turn on the 
sun.awt.X11.XDecoratedPeer logger in AWT.

I tried a few things in the multiwindow mode WM as workarounds to avoid 
tripping over this behaviour in AWT, but without success, so I can only 
suggest you raise a bug on AWT.
