to the resource and class strings of the parent app, "Revelation".
It's not unique, so I can't operate on it with the Style command.

OK, I see.

Well, for me the point is that I'd rather see an "Input Password"
dialog of Revelation with no titlebar at all, rather than an empty
title. But seeing that there's no easy way to do it, I guess I'll
contact the Revelation dev team, or learn to live with that.

Also, I think I'll test it under GNOME and see how Metacity handles
this.
