When using seamless applications such as Rdesktop, the window manager needs to send ConfigureNotify events. This is specified in ICCCM section 4.1.5. Without it, software will hang and wait for a response.

A patch has been created here and should be merged:

I have hand tested this patch on GNOME 3.18 on 16.04 LTS and it works. We are requesting this to be merged. This greatly impacts corporate and enterprise users that are trying to integrate Microsoft Windows applications using Rdesktop.
