While I'm resizing a window, fvwm normally displays geometry feedback
(window size) at the top-left. But when "xcompmgr -c" is running,
such information is no longer displayed.

Note: geometry feedback (window position) is also displayed in the
same way while a window is moved, but in this case, xcompmgr doesn't
prevent the display.

Same problem with compton (with or without -c).

I can reproduce this (even when moving). Unfortunately, according to [0], this
seems to be related to fvwm's behaviour, and there doesn't seem to be much
xcompmgr can do about this.

Thanks for the reference. If I understand correctly, the bug should be
reassigned to fvwm.

Yes, I think so.
