Before anyone sends a message saying "Why doesn't GNOME support work?" I'd like to clarify that this patch provided support for the GNOME 1.0 window manager specification, which is now 5 years out of date. GNOME 2.0 and later uses a specification developed jointly with the KDE project to allow window managers to work with both, and I haven't had time to implement it. If someone is interested in support the current GNOME/KDE window manager spec, it is here: http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Standards_2fwm_2dspec It should be possible to support basic features of the new specification by simply by changing a few names; for example, _NET_CLIENT_LIST replaces _WIN_CLIENT_LIST and _NET_DESKTOP_NAMES replaces _WIN_WORKSPACE_NAMES.
