Maxim, I know this isn't a showstopper per se, but I wonder how many
people are actually affected by this.  I filed ports/29973 against sawfish
1.0 not allowing it to work well with gmc (i.e. not passing mouse clicks
to the Gnome desktop).  Like I said, it isn't catastrophic, but it would
greatly improve the usability of gnome.
