Ah, I see.  Right, this is in handle_one_xevent, where we apparently
synthesise the MOVE_FRAME_EVENT:

	      if (!FRAME_TOOLTIP_P (f)
		  && (old_left != f->left_pos || old_top != f->top_pos))
		{
		  inev.ie.kind = MOVE_FRAME_EVENT;
		  XSETFRAME (inev.ie.frame_or_window, f);
		}
	    }

So it's purely based on whether the window manager told is that the
position changed -- which I guess it sort of does?  When I move to a
different virtual desktop, it shows me all the iconified frames, and
that's probably where this comes from?

This is in:

    case ConfigureNotify:

that case in itself is almost 200 lines long...

I've added Martin to the CCs; perhaps he has some insights here.
