I'd rather use .xsession , and fix  -fullscreen first. 

At least here the parameter does nothing, whether with a WM or without. 

What I see from the source is this: The window is always created with the
saved size. In SetWindowSize() the fullscreen size is set via
noteResize(), but when the window is mapped, the first ConfigureEvent does
a noteResize() with the actual size (which still is the default), 
overwriting the requested fullscreen size.
