Why can't it wait? A couple of frames doesn't sound like thousands
and also you probably would not start editing your files while your
frames are still moving around. So it wouldn't make any difference
on the user level, except that you'd get correct results by design.
And then it can of course (and probably should) handle other events
while waiting for the ConfigureNotify. In GUI apps it is normal that
"wait" doesn't mean just sleep or block.
Btw, on ms-windows such serialization is built-in actually. With
a call like "SetWindowPos" you'd get the WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGED message
with the new coordinates and sizes before the call returns.
