Comment 48 for bug 1521302

This bug report was quite helpful for me. I have this exact symptom, but in LXDE using openbox (3.6.1-1ubuntu2) in Lubuntu. Primarily with gnome-terminal, also. In particular, the hint about the window resizing correctly, then jumping back up, and the patch itself reordering the events sent to the window helped as I could verify the double movement as I can see a flicker the first time, and no flicker subsequent times (because both states are large/black). I'll try to follow up with openbox for a fix, however it seems to me that the VTE/gnome-terminal code is also a bit iffy to be affected in this way when little else seems to be.
