Hi, Ian Zimmerman. I forgot to point out more that 90% of the credit
for this issue is to you. Your analysis was great. It must have took
you time.

At the same time, one obstacle is removed by your patch in advance.

Yes. I've submitted couple of patches last summer for this issue:
http://sawfish.wikia.com/wiki/Negative-property-p
http://sawfish.wikia.com/wiki/Window_prop_list_%26_prop_del

And this is similar to your case. It's focus:
http://sawfish.wikia.com/wiki/Focus_policy_improvement

There already exist necessary tools. But the eradication takes
months, because it touches vast (or almost entire) part of the sawfish
user interface. Careless change affects users. Conscientious
challenger will improve the configurator GUI, too, to make it more
self-explanatory. 

Optimists may say that it's a good chance to review sawfish. Anyway,
we'd like to invite more developers. Anyone will be welcomed! (That's
all, no fee.)
