And what about make dwm call a user-defined function instead if
replacing it? What i'm thinking about is something like:

config.h

 #define MOUSEONTITLE mouseontitle

dwm.c
  void
  buttonpress(XEvent *e) {
    unsigned int i, x;
    Client *c;
    XButtonPressedEvent *ev = &e->xbutton;

+ MOUSEONTITLE(e);

    if(ev->window == barwin) {

 
This will allow me to just add a new function called "mouseontitle"
to handle all the mouse events in the title bar without having to
modify dwm.c
