Andrea,

That's why I've written "some"...
Basically it happens for the windows that don't emit a NotifyGrab event to the 
server.
And the problem is that X doesn't guarantee that this happens when a grab is 
set.

So, while in some cases (like the gnome-keyring box) we can still get an
NotifyWhileGrabbed event that is enough for us to know that it's
grabbing, in other ones (like vbox), there's not much other way than
trying to grab/ungrab the root window to check if the screen is already
grabbed or not. :(
