gtk_window_set_default_size() and gtk_widget_set_usize()
are great to start a new top window (I use both) but
for example to increase a window to full screen and then back,
gtk_window_set_default_size() and gtk_widget_set_usize()
don't work: gtk_widget_set_usize() can be used to increase 
but not to decrease a window; gtk_window_set_default_size()
defines the initial size, but not the current size.

The good news are, gdk_window_move_resize() works great for me,
I tried it with different WM and different Linux distributions,
with different X servers, no problem at all, of course I am not 
playing tricks with this, just changing the size, really (I don't 
even call gtk_widget_show afterwards).
