Server warps pointer to old location of window; then WM catches up and Window moves out from under. The ICCCM states that you'll get a ConfigureNotify event (even if the WM decides not to move you) from a correctly implemented WM. If you want the "sync", wait for the event. I don't see that you need the complexity you suggest.
