Fair enough. It was a rather arbitrary decision, anyway. I figured
there might be circumstances where size would be provided but not
coordinates. On the other hand, maybe just the opposite will occur
with future _NET_WM_STATE properties. I don't think there's a natural
way to allow for these with just one window property, anyway.

Any other problems?
