Because I assumed there is never any boolean feedback on a resize operation and so GTK would be correct in assuming resize must always succeed.

However I now realize the correct feedback method is in the form of resize events (which, sheepishly, I authored), so yeah GTK can check if the resize succeeded.

You're right GTK should be open here too. Even if a tiling/stage WM fails to honour the requested size, the toolkit should be listening for resize events and respond to the fact that it is now tiled.
