We did similiar work today ;)( -- I'd like to see your domax
patch as patch against the most recent hg tip.

The reason why you don't receive the enternotify events in
zoom() is because of restack() which performs the following
loop at the end:

        XSync(dpy, False);
        while(XCheckMaskEvent(dpy, EnterWindowMask, &ev));

I recommend doing it this way, instead of counting enternotify's
because it enforces our focus policy much cleaner than all this
quirky enternotify counting in other WMs.

Kind regards,
