Client messages _NET_WM_SHOW_WINDOW_MENU and _NET_WM_PERFORM_BUTTON_ACTION



Hi all,

attached are two patches for the NETWM spec. One message is to show the window
manager's window menu, the other is for passing the responsibility to perform
a button action from the client to the window manager. For detailed
information please have a look on the attached patches.

The need for these two client messages were derived by GTK+ and KWin
developers for better integrating GTK's new client-side-decorated windows in
environments which are not GNOME Shell.

KWin will add support for those two new hints and it looks like GTK+ and
Mutter will also support them.

I would like to hear your feedback on them for inclusion into the NETWM spec.

Best Regards
Martin Gräßlin
