Maemo and Sato use the support in Matchbox for a "custom" action (_NET_WM_CONTEXT_CUSTOM) to pop up the main menu bar, and I believe KDE uses _NET_WM_CONTEXT_HELP to implement context-sensitive help (help icon in the titlebar activates click-for-help mode). Matchbox also supports _NET_WM_CONTEXT_ACCEPT so that (insane) devices can create WinCE-style dialogs. Adding _NET_WM_CONTEXT_TOOLBAR sounds like it should be fairly simple to do, especially with a GTK+ utility function to mark a toolbar as the "main" toolbar. >It would also make it much easier to allow per-app themes, as is often > requested for the GIMP. I'm failing to see a reasonable use-case for the GIMP to have a different theme. What is the reasoning here?
