gdk_window_set_decorations (window->window, 0) to disable decorations,
gtk_window_set_policy() to turn off resizing, disabling movement is
impossible due to the way window management and X work.
gdk_window_set_functions() in principle lets you disable movement but
AFAIK most window managers ignore that hint.
