Re: patch for gtk+-2.0 : support for new Application Launch Feedback mechanism

[Mary Dwyer <Mary Dwyer Sun COM>]

hi

I confess I don't understand your proposal. Could you elaborate upon it?
- do you propose still using a binary wrapper to launch the app?
- are you uniquely identifying the feedback in some way?
- and in particular, what code would be updated to make the launched app send 
  an X client message to the window of the launching app?
  
  
cheers
Mary
