"Normal" applications don't but we have some custom things for
Meegotouch applications, like synthetic VisibilityNotify sending from
mcompositor. Also some additional window properties to handle the
decorator logic (Meegotouch applications decorate themselves, and for
others we have an external decorator [mdecorator] window).  Iconified
state is used for the task switcher but not in a traditional way (we use
the main window instead of a icon window).
