Yes, that's what I was thinking about EWMH, there is already monocle

I spend some time on the fullscreen issues and came up with a version
that works for all cases I tested so far. It is committed into hg tip.
It is a simplification of Kris' patch (basically I got rid of
superflous checks that don't seem to be necessary), but with a more
complicated clientmessage(). I also extended Client a bit to keep
state and changed resize(). The changes I did are backwards compliant
for any layout algorithms however.
Your version is much cleaner. As for the checks, I went and
rechecked the spec, and it is a SHOULD rather than a MUST. It's
mainly intended for restarting/changing window managers, so
unless something is broken without it, I think it should be left
out.

The string is a stark data structure and everywhere it is passed there
is duplication. It is a perfect vehicle for hiding information.
