I guess it's a Window Manager problem that doesn't honor the move, it
doesn't work on metacity and openbox (at least on my gentoo box) but
it does work on fluxbox and xfce4.

As far as I can see they are public API, used internally into
gtkwindow.c and they also appear in the docs, (they just miss proper
descriptions) so I would say that they can be used into your code.

What WM are you using by the way?
