Section 7.7 of the EWMH 1.2, 
http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/wm-spec/1.2/html/x355.html#AEN385

I know that all these calls end up as configure requests on the server 
side.
Section 4.1.5 is known to be one of the hardest sections of the ICCCM, 
thats
why the EWMH contains an detailed explanation of the expected behaviour. 
But 
it only explains the expected behaviour for "move requests" and "resize 
requests",
not "moveresize requests".
