Many? Not  *single* one of the popular wms does it. I tried mwm, fvwm,
afterstep, blackbox.

I did that once in kwm or kwin, but people complained. 

Oven, are there any WMs that do this according to ICCCM? If I make Qt behave
right, it's broken on 99% of the platforms people are using Qt on.... same is
true with GTK+.

I don't know what to do.
