For mysterious reason, this is not working. Internet research says XSendEvent() is kinda hard to use...

An alternative is to use XTestFakeMotionEvent() rather than XSendEvent(), but that would require new library dependency libxtst.

According to https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13041511/simulating-mouse-events-and-keyboard-events-c-linux,

XSendEvent doesn't work because many applications discard fake keyboard events by XSendEvent.

If anyone knows about how to solve this please let me know, otherwise since this feature is fringe (based on my prediction), I would let it stall for a while.
