"For Christ's sake", if you get this moved by a bloody window manager,
maybe it's time to step away from the keyboard a bit, eh?
Right now, there appears to be precisely one person that wants GNOME
support in Blackbox. Why should a bunch of others change their
priorities to meet yours?
And who *cares* if people use Window Maker instead of Blackbox if they
want GNOME-compliance? If it's about options, like you said, then
maybe it's time that you either accept that this option does not meet
your marketing requirements, or write code such that it does.
