* # Containers #
*
* There's three containers in the stage that can be used to place actors, here
* are listed in the order in which they are painted:
*
* - window group, accessible with meta_get_window_group_for_screen()
* - top window group, accessible with meta_get_top_window_group_for_screen()
* - overlay group, accessible with meta_get_overlay_group_for_screen()
*
* Mutter will place actors representing windows in the window group, except for
* override-redirect windows (ie. popups and menus) which will be placed in the
* top window group. Mutter won't put any actors in the overlay group, but it's
* intended for compositors to place there panel, dashes, status bars, etc.
