Yes it would. Just like FvwmDecorator which is on the todo-2.6 list. But to do this, and to do it *right* requires much more discussion, and many more changes than just shoe-horning in what you're describing, alas. At the moment, I'm saying: * It's a good idea. Wait. * Wait. * Wait for 2.6. * Wait. * And when we start discussing things for 2.6 properly, this will be included. Given the amount of work needed, Lars, don't waste your time trying to do in now -- it's just not worth it. Really. -- Thomas Adam
