For a concrete example, let's assume a client window of size WxH. The WM
reparents this window into a window of the same size and sets
the border width
of the frame window to 10. Should _NET_FRAME_EXTENTS be set to
"0,0,0,0" or to
"10,10,10,10"?
"10,10,10,10"
The property exists so the client can pre-know (before even being reparented)
the margins the WM will add (to restore a former position/geometry) - it
obviously doesn't matter whether those margins are an offset in the reparented
window tree or the deco windows border.
Also, does it make sense to clarify this in the spec
Looks (surprisingly) not ambigious to me, but one may add a non-complete list
of things (stating that it's incomplete, for otherwise somebody may not add
extents from double reparenting or count things twice etcetc.)
Cheers,
Thomas
