OK, I'll take care about it.

I dont' know if I understand what you mean, but I just realized I can force
window position
by setting it after xcb_map_window() call. Example:

{
        uint32_t mask = XCB_CONFIG_WINDOW_WIDTH | XCB_CONFIG_WINDOW_HEIGHT;
        uint32_t values[2] = {width, height};
        xcb_configure_window(HostX.conn, scrpriv->win, mask, values);
}

xcb_map_window(HostX.conn, scrpriv->win);

{
        uint32_t xy_mask = XCB_CONFIG_WINDOW_X | XCB_CONFIG_WINDOW_Y;
        uint32_t xy_values[2] = {x, y};
        xcb_configure_window(HostX.conn, scrpriv->win, xy_mask, xy_values);
}

Is this what you mean?
