    Is it possible to tell the server
    to generate an event for each pixel the pointer travels through?

Nope.  The protocol does provide a motion buffer history mechanism
(see XGetMotionEvents) to permit gathering of finer-grained motion
than is reported by motion events, but lots of servers don't implement
this mechanism.
