Your guess is right, I connect configure_event, expose_event,
(and motion_notify_event and button_press_event for that matter)
directly to the gl_area (drawing_area), which explains the difference.

It also explains why xev gives a ConfigureNotify event.

Connecting to the gl_area directly has advantages, 
in my opinion, as this case shows, are there any
reasons to think otherwise?
