The offset is definitely not meant for this, mainly because in former times, there were no drivers which didn't provide it's on Window, except the memory driver. So it may be ok, to use the offset in the geometry option for windowless drivers as you mean it, but I wouldn't do so, since then one parameter has different meanings for different drivers, which is in my opinion not ok. The offset parameter is used to position the window on the screen. You need a window then obviously in the first place to apply the offset values. I actually don't fully understand, what your problem is - other drivers like the xwin driver, qt or wxwidgets driver use the PLESC_RESIZE escape code to be told, that the geometry changed. Depending on how the driver is implemented the scaling of the x and y axis are changed (proportional or not) and the plot is redrawn using the plot buffer. Look at these drivers to see how this is done.
