It's not the extraneous leave/enter events; applications could just ignore
them (mode grab).  But, if the pointer really *does* leave the window
during the grab, it won't see the enter events when the grab is released,
so it 'has' to believe the leave events.

However, if the WM placed the grab on the application window (in violation 
of the ICCCM), then the application will see an event when the grab is 
deactivated, even if the pointer is no longer within the application 
window.

If anyone has a concrete proposal for making this work perfectly, we could 
easily add it to XFIXES.
