The difference between the second and third cases suggests that it's a
bug in the WM, as being able to resize should only depend upon the
current settings, not previous settings.

The properties start off with just USSize set. When a client connects,
they change to PSize|PMinSize|PMaxSize; when it disconnects, it
reverts to just PSize.

The one thing which will definitely fix it is to bypass the calls to
set_size(). But then the responsibility for ensuring that the window
isn't resized while a client is connected falls to the user.
