Yes, I know these issues, and I think it is not wmii's fault (Those clients seem to reconfigure the parent window on their own, what completely breaks ICCCM.) I think we will get a workaround for them after wmii-3 (though especially GAIM is considered as broken app ;) Can you supply the geometry of the specific client through reading its geom file if you switch to the view it is attched to?
