in terms of maybe using some of the standards listed there - yes, in terms of
beating my head against committees, I'd rather not beat my head and wait ages
for the results, if any. implimenting the newtwm hints in ecore is actually a
task on the list rbdgn i looking into right now (as well as icccm, motif,
gnomewm and old kde hints), so all the hints are wrapped in a single hint api.
if we wish to extend these hints for e and our own apps, we will do it
ourselves, but likely not through an organisation.
