OK, I added a special style just for gimp windows to use
a different font, and that seemed to work, but I noticed
it doesn't work if I restart fvwm. On an fvwm restart, I revert
back to the useless WM_NAME title. If I start gimp
from scratch, I get the useful _NET_WM_NAME title the new gimp style
is able to display properly.
