Snap is only the intermediate result here, triggering the final result.
The size of the window isn't changed until after the move is completed.
So it's even worse, on two accounts.
First, you get your window size changed
*unexpectedly*. Who pays to attention to those
"end boxes", really? Should one treat the
half-visible "end boxes" as something, examining
which is obligatory for the successful operation
completion? Those boxes are just (useful) hints!
Second, I wouldn't want a MS-bashing session
develop here, but really, their interface
contributions (terminology included) *may*
happen to be just silly, and replicating them in
the window system which had and used correct
snap for ages is ..., well, not so clever, too. :)

While moving the window, only a transparent frame is shown showing the
future position/geometry of the window if the user chooses to complete
the snap. The term is borrowed from (gulp) Windows [1].
