of course .... this isn't really a problem .... all one needs to do is
to write a function that queries for the XA_WIN hints ... and if they
are there, it uses them otherwise it uses override redirect ...

there is one minor problem with this however ... the panel might start
up before the windowmanager does ... so it might not get an answer

another thing might be if a windowmanager changed ...
