X11 is not the window manager - it's the window server. The WM is
something that runs on top of X11 and manages your windows and their
"decorations". To you it is probably Gnome or KDE or Matchbox or FVWM or
etc, maybe even FLWM! 
Each WM has subtly different ideas about how to manage window positions,
but in general they are not supposed to move the window unless you tell
it to.

With either Gnome or KDE selected as the desktop on my FC7 box, the
windows consistently re-appear at the same position as they were hidden.
It sounds very much as if your code is doing something odd - can you
post a minimal example that exhibits the fault?
