[wmii] Idea to handle broken clients

Hi Anselm and list,

Is it possible for an application to have sub-windows ? Is it possible
to attach another application's window as a sub-window ?

If yes, why not write a separate application that would handle broken
apps inside itself ? You'd just have to start that application and tell
what windows to subclass. All the ugly hacks could go into that app and
leave wmii clutter-free while having the possibility to run those apps.

Also, one wrapper could be launched to handle only dockapps, so that
they are stacked together in a column.

Sorry if it's noise, I don't know if this is possible.

Cheers,
