Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-system-monitor

Description of the problem:
Every time a gnome-system-monitor window is resized a window manager warning is logged in ~/.xsession-errors .

Steps to reproduce:
1. Start a gnome-terminal .
2. Type tail -f ~/.xsession-errors .
3. Press Alt-F2 and type gnome-system-monitor <return>.
3. Go to the bottom right hand corner of the "System Monitor", click and hold on the grippy then drag the window bigger.

Expected result:
No extra messages to appear in ~/.xsession-errors .

Actual result:
Output like the following is added:
Window manager warning: Received a _NET_WM_MOVERESIZE message for 0x3200003 (System Mon); these messages lack timestamps and therefore suck.

How reproducible is this problem?
The problem is reproducible most of the time.

might be due to GTK+, marking duplicate of bug #109156, we can open tasks there if that turns to be something to change to every applications generating the warning
