Ok, I may have a solution: donwload the DXWnd Tool.
It worked for me at least, but you can't really drag the window around.
Open "dxwnd.exe" and right-click the window pane. Several options will appear, click "Add" and a new window will appear. Browse to your "BGE.exe", in "DirectX Version to Hook" choose "DirectX9" and leave the other options unchecked. Click "OK". Your application is added, now you can either launch the game directly through DxWnd ("Execute" or double click on it) or better leave DXWnd running in the background and start the game through the gogwrapper. In the options you could check "DirectInput is Hooked" so you can actually move the mouse around out of the game and on the Desktop (otherwise it will be stuck in the game without you seeing it). I played a bit with the coordinates, but it doesn't seem to work. Hope that helps! ;)
EDIT: Made a screencap! (running the game in 1024x768 res)
