_NET_RESTACK_WINDOW not supported

[mse2]

It has been reported that MSEgui applications:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mseide-msegui/
don't work well with jwm 2.2.2. It seems that _NET_RESTACK_WINDOW is not supported.
The test project is here:
https://gitorious.org/mseuniverse/mseuniverse/source/testcase/window/netrestackwindow

A couple of problems with your test program. Per wm-spec-1.5, _NET_RESTACK_WINDOW is only sent by pagers. Are you a pager? Also, you are setting the source id to 0. It must be set to 2 when it comes from a pager. Also, _NET_RESTACK_WINDOW support is not required and jwm does not put it in _NET_SUPPORTED. jwm has its own pager.

Window managers that do not support _NET_RESTACK_WINDOW include: mutter, uwm, awesome, waimea, wind, jwm, pekwm, blackbox, windowmaker, afterstep, ... The only ones I know of that do are: adwm, matwm2, fluxbox, icewm, openbox, metacity.

I agree that only pager-type programs should use _NET_RESTACK_WINDOW, but I think it would be good to allow JWM to support this at some point to allow other pager-type programs to work.

I don't know of any pagers that actually use it. libwnck doesn't.

This should work now. I'm not completely sure it works correctly since I don't know of an existing program to use it.

Tested with MSEide --RESTACKWINDOW --NORECONFIGUREWMWINDOW, looks OK, thanks a lot!
