We hashed it out on irc and a little on a separate -devel list between Brad, xOr and myself. The work is tabled until after 0.65.0 is released and probably until after some of the work for 0.70.0 is begun.

This is the same style of window that KDE and GNOME use to give desktop icons. Right now blackbox can not tell it from another window but it will eventually be able to see the "I am a desktop window, leave me alone".
