Hi,
For some UI tasks we want to be able to say "focus the tasklist button
for this window." For example if you Alt+Esc through windows, for
minimized windows, rather than restoring them I want to focus the task
button. The user can then press Enter to activate the button if they
want to restore the window.
So a simple client message to the root window probably works, the only
trick is what to do if you have multiple tasklists:
- screw it, let one "win," it's a broken situation
- have ye olde manager selection
- have toplevel windows containing a tasklist identify themselves
and the window manager picks one to use (probably first one
to be mapped that's on the current workspace or something)
