I couldn't find out how to send a client message with an allocated memory.
The XClientMessageEvent has a fixed size, thus the name of the menu item
would be limeted to 10 chareacters :-(

The only variable data size seems to have the window properties.
Of course i can send with a normal XClientMessageEvent the ID.
And then the listener can then read the window property.

But is'nt there a better way? Maybe I forgot something..?

What we need is GNOME wide message system!
