Note that this is the "original" way, used by old software built on X Toolkit. Not following this behavior has also been filed as a bug for gtk+, so I'm not the first one who got irritated about this bug in implementations. Updating the specification would, not only verify such bug reports, but also make it a lot easier to file new ones for other broken systems. Current specification states "Application authors should follow the following guidelines to get correct behavior". Gtk+ has shown us that it is possible to follow the guideline and still have a broken behavior. Now, that's a quest we have to answer by updating the spec. --Toni
