I wasn't thinking of a single string match, but a string match for
about every application that maps a window. But then again, it ran
smoothly on 8MB 486, so my concerns should be disregarded as an
unreasonable suckphobia. And if having this in the WM is really of
more value than having it in the clients' binaries, than power to the
user.
