Is it normal? Probably. Many applications specify in their hints that
their sizes should only be changed by multiples of some amount. This
means that the new shape of the window (as shown by the rectangle) is
not always going to land where the mouse pointer is currently located.
A common source of this is programs which use fixed fonts, like many
terminals, and request that their size only be changed by whole
character widths/heights.
