yes,

aren't there lots of possible desktops... because I can set my
viewport to look at anywhere I want within my desktop (ex-
overlooking two pages).

I don't think that it's very consistent with the other information
being sent with M_NEW_PAGE. I could recieve:
vp_width/height == probably screen resolution
vp_x/y COULD == (123,321)... in which case:
total_pages_x/y == nothing useful what-so-ever.

If you ask me:
M_NEW_PAGE should contain ONLY vp_x/y
M_CONFIG_INFO should contain vp_width/height, and either
max_possible_x/y OR DesktopSize (which I think it already does).

It seems a little like fvwm sits on the fence regarding whether
consider pages as something that can overlap or not. I would say that
a "viewport" could have any possible top-left x/y... and that "pages"
are viewports that do not overlap each other.

am I making sense?
