Funny, the sequence I learned somehow is Alt-Space, down arrow, Enter (this selects Move), tap any arrow key. Now the window follows your cursor until you click. I'll try X next time.

I always did Alt-Space, M to select Move. Of course, this was easier to know before they hid the underline cues by default so you'd know what hotkeys were what :)
The problem with X is that it maximises the window... for now.

If you restore it again, it flies off screen again.

Your method is how I do it (modulo using M for move, rather than reaching for the cursor keys.)

Not if you start by dragging the title bar instead of just pressing the restore button.
