As the position of attached modal dialogs is determined entirely
by the position of the parent window, the dialog may end up
partially off-screen (especially if the dialog is wider than the
parent). In this case, diverge from the calculated position and
try to fit the dialog on-screen.

This is useful for DnD to another monitor in gnome-shell.
In addition to a normal move it corrects the saved rect for

Currently attached modal dialogs are not resizable, but we don't
communicate this to GTK+, so the dialog may end up with resize
grips anyway. As a fix, allow resizing, but account for the dialog

Getting the contents of a depth-1 pixmap through cairo gives us
an alpha pixmap. We need to convert to a monochrome pixmap
as is expected by the ICCCM definition of WM_HINTS.

apply_mask made some wrong assumptions that became untrue

Currently, attached modal dialog can be grabbed (either by the
title bar, or using Alt+Button1), though they won't move when

Commit 96c43866 changed the tiling behavior to prefer edge tiling
over maximization in corner cases (well, quite literally). As a
side effect, it only allows untiling of edge-tiled windows by
dragging the window towards the correct edge.
This patch restores the old behavior for untiling, while keeping
the new behavior for untiled windows.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=645455
For tiling, we check whether the pointer is near the edges of
the monitor where the pointer is located, so checking that the
pointer is within the bounds of the monitor is unnecessary and
confusing.
Mark that the the third argument to meta_rectangle_union and
meta_rectangle_intersect is an (out) argument that should be created
by the language binding.

In a performance or regression testing environment, we may want to
only manage windows from a particular test program, and ignore all

This made sense back in the day of stateless window managers,

This adds a preference that when enabled makes all windows not on
the primary monitor be visible on all workspaces (i.e. not part of the
workspace switching handling).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=609258
Sometimes on_all_workspaces is requested by the client/user, and sometimes
its calculated implicitly due to internal state. We split this up so that
we know when the user has explicitly asked for sticky window, when e.g.
setting wmspec properties or storing session info.
on_all_workspaces means this window is visible on all workspaces.
on_all_workspaces_requested, means the user explicitly made the window
sticky somehow (via imported session, _NET_WM_STATE from another wm,
toggled in the window menu, etc). It always implies on_all_workspaces is
TRUE.
Right now the only time we set on_all_workspaces is for override-redirect
windows, but later we can add a "windows on non-primary monitor are not
part of the workspace switching" feature.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=609258
We don't actually use the full xrandr to get the primary monitor, we
just rely on the xrandr xinerama compat code to return the primary

defined wrt xinerama monitor index order.

The latter move method will place the window by the origin of the

When reload_net_wm_state() is called at startup to read the initial
value of _NET_WM_STATE, it was calling recalc_window_type(), but not
recalc_features(), which meant that, eg, meta->skip_taskbar would
never get initialized from meta->wm_state_skip_taskbar, which meant
that next time mutter went to update the window's _NET_WM_STATE, it
would overwrite the app-specified initial values. Fix that.
(In metacity, this bug is masked by the fact that recalc_features()
gets called when reading the intial value of WM_NORMAL_HINTS, which
comes after _NET_WM_STATE in metacity's prop_hooks_table. In mutter,
the table got reordered at some point, exposing the bug.)

If mutter is going to be a "real" library, then it should install its
includes so that users can do
#include <meta/display.h>
rather than
#include <display.h>
So rename the includedir accordingly, move src/include to src/meta,
and fix up all internal references.
There were a handful of header files in src/include that were not
installed; this appears to have been part of a plan to keep core/,
ui/, and compositor/ from looking at each others' private includes,
but that wasn't really working anyway. So move all non-installed
headers back into core/ or ui/.

Move all of the mutter code into a new libmutter-wm.so, split its
main() method into meta_get_option_context(), meta_init() and
meta_run(), add methods for using in-process plugins, and add
libmutter-wm.pc pointing to the new library.
The mutter binary is now just a tiny program that links against
libmutter-wm. The --version and --mutter-plugins options are handled
at the mutter level, not in libmutter-wm, and a few strange unused
command-line options (--no-force-fullscreen and --no-tab-popup) have
been removed.

meta_restart() was broken, in that it restarted mutter with what was

It looks amazingly lame if we simply call exit() during logout. While
it's true that for applications that use XSMP, gnome-session will
close them before us, that doesn't do anything for non-XSMP apps,
which we really hope is the common case.
Instead, we just go away when the X server does.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=643437
For GNOME Shell, we need to grab our DBus names *before* we talk XSMP.
gnome-session takes our XSMP connection as "I'm ready", and starts
running all the other random crud that people dropped in as autostart
files. But for example, we need to have claimed
org.freedesktop.Notifications before a lot of said crud starts.
This requires a plugin API version bump.
Misc: Move handling of --version way earlier in main() where
it should be; no point having it wedged after plugin handling.
If we handle a key event then passing it to GTK+ as well can only
cause confusion. Normally GTK+ would do nothing with a key event for
some window it doesn't know about, but plugins might be doing more
things with the GTK+ event queue.

If we are previewing hidden windows, we might be previewing them in a context
like a thumbnail view of a workspace where we care about positioning. So, instead
of waiting until the window is first actually shown to place it, if
live_hidden_previews is set, place the window window when we first compute its
visibility, even if we don't end up showing it.

A plugin that does workspace management on its on may want to set the
workspace layout without having to deal with putting a property

When we delete a workspace before the active workspace, we need

As the tile preview is shown or hidden when a window is dragged
around, it may stick around if the drag operation is cancelled.
Make sure that the preview is hidden in this case.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=639988
Drag operations may be cancelled, in which case the dragged window
should be restored to the position/state it had when the drag was
initialized. In order to do this for tiled states, the original
state has to be saved during the operation.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=639988
The previous tiling state of a grabbed window should be restored
if the drag operation is cancelled (by hitting the Escape key).
This might involve to meta_window_tile(), so export the function
in window-private.h.

We want switching between the windows of an application to be an easily
accessible operation. The convenient and memorable keybinding is the
key above the tab key - but the keysym for that key isn't consistent
across different keyboard layouts.
Add code that figures out the key from the XKB geometry and a magic
keysym name "Above_Tab" that refers to this key and switch
the default binding for cycle_group to <Alt>Above_Tab. (This will
have no effect for the normal case of getting the key binding from
GConf until this patch is applied to Metacity as well.)
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=635569
It may be desirable for theme authors to treat side-by-side tiled

This patch removes the ability to disable compositing in mutter. As
clutter compositing was the reason for the fork from metacity, turning
compositing off does not make sense.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=626875
To deal with reentrancy from compositor plugins doing things like
moving windows between workspaces in an effect callback, update
the visible_to_compositor flag before calling into the compositor.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=613124
When a compositor is present, we keep the visibility state of the
compositor windows in sync with window->visible_to_compositor. We need
to do the same when enabling the compositor.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=613124
Maximized tiled windows end up with an inconsistent tile mode when
unmaximized by other means than dragging the window free (e.g.
using the unmaximize button or double clicking the title bar), so
reset the tile mode when unmaximizing.
This is not a problem for side-by-side tiling, as there are no
alternatives to dragging the window free.
When a tiled window is maximized (e.g. by clicking the title bar
button), unmaximizing the window restores the tiled state. While
this is reasonable for side-by-side tiling, it is confusing for
"maximize" tiled windows, as unmaximization has no visible effect.
Change unmaximize to only restore the tiled state of side-by-side
tiled windows.
The original patch triggered "maximize" when the window was dragged
to the top, so that the pointer was below or on the monitor edge and
above the work area's top.
If there's no chrome at the top of the monitor, so that monitor edge
and work area top fall together, the pointer cannot be moved above
the work area's top, so tiling was not triggered.
The old behavior of being able to shake loose a maximized window
overlaps with and is for the most part superceded by top edge tiling.
This commit changes the code to only enable shake loose behavior
when edge tiling is disabled.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=630548
In addition to the existing side-by-side tiling modes, this commit
adds a new "maximize" tiling mode. It allows the user to maximize
their windows (in other words, tile with the edge panels) by dragging
their window to the top edge of the monitor.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=630548
The meta_window_handle_mouse_grab_op_event function ensures
the tile_mode variable is in a consistent state after a drag
op is finished.
The way this is current done is:
if (!window->maximized_vertically &&
window->tile_mode != META_TILE_NONE)
window->tile_mode = META_TILE_NONE;
While valid, it doesn't "read" as well as using the
META_WINDOW_TILED_SIDE_BY_SIDE macro, since the macro is specifically
about side-by-side tiling.
This commit just changes things to use the macro and to not bother
checking the tile mode (since if we just reset it anyway, then it doesn't
matter if the value is right or wrong to begin with).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=630548
Currently, the new tiling feature, supports side-by-side, horizontal
tiling when dragging windows to one of the vertical edges of a monitor.
Other types of tiling (on other monitor edges) are potentially useful,
though.

edge_tiling.

A direction parameter is passed to meta_compositor_switch_workspace(),

overlay_key_combo needs the same treatment as other keycodes on a
change - we should always recompute it if we have a keysym not
a keycode, and not only if the keycode hasn't already been

While the Meego developers agreed to switching mutter to GTK+-3.0

meta_display_process_key_event() always looks up events based on the

In many places, MetaRegion was being used entirely internally, rather
than for gtk2/gtk3 compatibility. In these cases, it's simpler to just
depend on cairo-1.10 (for both gtk2 and gtk3) and use cairo_region_t.
The few places where we did need GDK compatibility (GdkEvent.region and
gdk_window_shape_combine_mask) are replaced with a combination of
converting GdkRegion to cairo_region_t and conditional code.

For functions (but not callback types), '(closure)' is used on the
callback parameter, and takes the name of the parameter which is
the closure/user data.
A maximized window can't be resized from the screen edges (preserves
Fitts law goodness for the application), but it's still possible
to start a resize drag with alt-middle-button. Currently we just
don't let the user resize the window, while showing drag feedback;
it's more useful to let the user "break" out from the resize.
This provides a fast way to get a window partially aligned with
the screen edges - maximize, then alt-drag it out from one edge.
Behavior choices in this patch:
- You can drag out a window out of maximization in both directions -
smaller and larger. This can be potentilaly useful in multihead.
- Dragging a window in only one direction unmaximizes the window
fully, rather than leaving it in a horizontally/vertically
maximized state. This is done because the horizontally/vertically
maximzed states don't have clear visual representation and can
be confusing to the user.
- If you drag back to the maximized state after breaking out,
maximization is restored, but you can't maximize a window by
dragging to the full size if it didn't start out that way.
A new internal function meta_window_unmaximize_with_gravity() is
added for implementing this; it's a hybrid of
meta_window_unmaximize() and meta_window_resize_with_gravity().

The hacks we were playing by calling gdk_error_trap_push() and then
resetting the error handler are incompatible with the rewrite of
GDK error traps.
Since the new error code has some features that simplify what we
are doing (like automatically figuring out whether a XSync() is needed)
and because our custom error handler didn't have a lot of a point,
use a separate code path for GTK+ 3.0 builds that just uses the
GDK error traps straight-up without a custom error handler.

When we do pseudo-management on an override-redirect window, we have to be

A mismerge of the Metacity commit "4943d79 Prevent window self-maximisation"
caused the window's user set size and position to be saved *before*
actually resizing the window to the unmaximized position rather than after.
This meant that after unmaximization the window was in an inconsistent
state and anything that caused a resize to be queued (like a change in
window properties by the application) would cause it to pop back to
the maximized size and position.

While debugging a focus problem, I noticed that Mutter had exactly

Changing the number of workspaces via an external pager relies on the gconf

Although multi-screen support has not been tested and probably
doesn't fully work, the basic setup for multi-screen is that
we have the same list of plugins for all screens, but a different
instance of the plugins for each screen.
To allow plugins to do setup that is screen independent and needs
to occur early in the setup process, we identify a "default plugin
manager" and load (but not start) that plugin manager's plugins
immediately after we know our list of plugins.
That plugin manager is then reused for the first screen we open
and the plugins are started at that time. Separate plugin managers
are loaded and started for any other screens we open.
(A plugin could keep track of whether the screen-independent
setup has been done in a static variable, or it could do everything
in a way that is safe to do repeatedly.)

Allow a plugin to redirect preferences from one GConf location
to another GConf location. This is useful for keys that need to be

Overriding is implemented by overwriting the keys in the arrays
of preferences; a list of the current overrides is stored to allow
proper memory management when an override is itself overriden.

The change to reduce GConf trips by using
gconf_client_all_entries() broke the fallback to builtin values
because update_binding() was no longer called for bindings not
found in GConf. Fix this by keeping track of the bindings we
find from GConf in a hash table, then looping through and setting
all the bindings at the end.
This also improves efficiency by avoiding a linear scan for each
binding in GConf.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=609710
When we are reading bindings initially, update_list_binding() needs
to be passed the correct "string list type" since we are calling
it with a list of strings instead of a list of GConfValue.

Whether Metacity honors a raise request from an application should
not be affected by the raise_on_click setting; remove a check that
seems to have been added in error.

When we are moving a window with a modal dialog to a different
workspace, meta_workspace_focus_default_window() can be called
with 'not_this_one' being the focused modal dialog.
Since the ancestor of that window is also being moved, we must
not focus it as an alternative to the current window; this will
cause windows to be moved back and Metacity to get into an
inconsistent confused state.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=237158https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=598995
We currently allow XRaiseWindow when the same application (defined
by the window group) is focused, but the kind of old applications
that XRaiseWindow are frequently not setting the window group.
Expand the check to allow the same X client (defined by the looking
at client ID) to raise windows above the focus window.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=567528
When started without session related command line parameters (e.g. from
gnome-session), metacity picks up client_id from the DESKTOP_AUTOSTART_ID
environment variable. Unfortunately, there is no way to distinguish if this was
passed from a config file, representing old saved session, or generated by
gnome-session, therefore load_state is attempted in each case. If the client_id
is generated, there will be no session file, and metacity will report a
warning.
Just remove the warning so that users won't always find a warning at the
start of their .xsession-errors.

The atk-bridge GTK+ module opens its own display; if we get an
XIOError on that display, we shouldn't abort with a meta_bug()
but just exit normally. Also fix a segfault if we got an XError
for that display.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=604319
Add a configure switch:
--with-libcanberra=[yes/no/auto]
(defaulting to auto); if libcanberra is not found or explicitly
disabled, then the default system bell will be used for the bell
sound and no switch workspace sound is played.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=609585
These sounds are good candidates for caching in the sound server, to
save a bit of CPU and make reaction faster. Hence, tell libcanberra to
cache them.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=609585
Right now metacity issues only 1 bell event per second. This is
feels buggy when triggering multiple alarm sounds in a terminal.
This patch simple increases the limit to 1/100ms. 100ms is probably a
good choice since the HIG recommends that all user reaction should
happen within 100ms. With this applied pressing 'Left' in gnome-terminal
feels much more responsive.

* src/core/bell.c: Don't force CA_PROP_CANBERRA_ENABLE to 1.
That was a misunderstanding on my part, and makes it impossible
to get rid of the bell.

* src/core/bell.c (meta_bell_set_audible): Now that we are

bell internally.

metacity tries to do the right thing, by preloading all the relevant
directories before getting the keys one-by-one, but GConfClient isn't actually
smart enough to avoid server roundtrips in this case. That should certainly be
fixed in GConf.
In the meantime, here is a patch that reworks the metacity prefs initialization
to avoid roundtrips for individual keys anyway, by using
gconf_client_all_keys().
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=574121https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=607746
The ICE connection is opened by libSM; we can't just close it when
we get an IOError on the ICE connection; instead call SmcCloseConnection()
and mark the connection as closed. This will prevent a segfault if we
exit out of the metacity main loop and get to meta_finalize().

Windows demanding attention should never appear in the alt-tab list
unless they're of a type which might have appeared there anyway. This
solves a problem under AWN where docks which were marked as demanding
attention appeared in all alt-tab lists; they were irrelevant and it
was impossible to remove them from the lists.

(This is inspired by Metacity commit 45cbaa2 by Thomas Thurman, but
much simpler - the use of g_date_strftime("%Y") ended up being just
%d for all 90+ current translations)
meta_workspace_set_builtin_struts() is slightly expensive; it involves
discarding all our cached computed information about the layout of the
workspace. So catch calls to set_builtin_struts() that don't change
anything.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=609546
Since meta_workspace_invalidate_work_area() frees the edges
workspace->screen_edges and workspace->monitor_edges, we must clean up
our cached edge resistance data when the invalidate_work_area() is
called on the active workspace, or when the workspace changes.
Make the computation of the edge resistance data lazy so that it
will be recomputed the next time we try to access it.
meta_display_compute_resistance_and_snapping_edges() is made
private to edge-resistance.c
Invaliding the data when active workspace changes also will improve
correctness for edge resistance when the current workspace changes
during a grab operation. (Even with this fix we still don't try to
handle window positions changing during a grab operation; that can't
cause a crash since, unlike screen and monitor edges, the window edges
are freshly allocated, it will just cause slight oddness in that
corner case.)
Root cause tracked down due to much effort by Jon Nettleton.

When putting 32-bit properties into longs on 64-bit architectures,
XGetWindowProperty assumes the values are supposed to be signed, and
so it sign-extends values greater than 0x7fffffff. So if they *aren't*
supposed to be signed, we need to chop off the high bits ourselves.
(Most CARDINAL-valued properties only end up using small values
anyway, so it doesn't matter, but _NET_WM_WINDOW_OPACITY uses the full
range, and so was previously failing on 64-bit machines.)

The commit that removed metacity-dialog added a global SIGCHLD handler
that caused problems by (a) calling waitpid(-1) and thus breaking
g_child_watch for everyone else, and (b) doing too much from a signal
handler and sometimes causing deadlocks (bug 596200).
This removes the global handler and has each zenity user create its
own child watch to watch for exit. (It also fixes the window class of
the zenity dialogs, so that meta_window_present_delete_dialog() will
work again.)
Having a MetaDisplay::window-demands-attention signal allows to deal with
windows demanding attention in a cetralized fashion.
The signal is emitted when a window is created with initial demands-attention
state and/or when the state changes later on.

With the change from bug 582639, we no longer call the reload
functions for properties that are not initially set, so the
initialization of fields in window.c has to match what
window-props.c would set for a missing property.
There was only one discrepancy, window->input, which needs
to be set to TRUE by default (or a window missing a WM_HINTS
property won't get focus); we also add explicit initializers
for a couple of fields that were getting 0-initialized
to the correct default value of FALSE for consistency with
the explicit intialization of the rest of the fields.

For some consumers it's significantly more convenient to be able
to directly connect to a signal on the Window to know when
Mutter is done with it, rather than having to connect to each
Workspace object (and handle workspace additions, etc.).
Similarly, add window-created which acts globally.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=598289
When we focus a window on a different desktop, and the calc_showing
idle that hides/shows the windows gets run before we get focus events
back from X, we think that we are hiding the window with the focus
so we focus a "random" window to avoid leaving the user with no focus.
Work around this temporarily by checking display->expected_focus_window;
this isn't a perfect fix because there are cases where
display->expected_focus_window corresponds to a window we tried to
focus in the past but failed, but it makes things work fairly well.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=597352
When we create the timeline dummy timeline to ensure that our later
functions that should be run during repaint get called called, pass in
G_MAXUINT to make the duration very long, not 0. (It will get reset
whenever there is no repaint later to run, so the fact that G_MAXUINT
is only ~40 days isn't a problem.)
This fixes a warning from Clutter, but also a real problem.
There was a problem where if, for example, a restack was triggered
out of a clutter event handler, then after Clutter processed the
events, it would proceed immmediately on to repaint the stage without
ever returning control to the GLib main loop. So even though we
had an idle handler installed with a higher priority than the
Clutter stage repainting the clutter stage repainting would happen
first and we'd get a wrong frame.
Fix this by introducing the idea of "later functions", which abstract
the idea of "doing something later" away from g_idle_add() and use
a combination of GLib idle functions and Clutter "repaint functions"
to get our callbacks triggered at the right time, even when they
are installed from a clutter event handler.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=596334
This also resolve a FIXME where MUTTER_PRIORITY_BEFORE_REDRAW
could starve stage repainting.
We need a way to indicate to gnome-control-center that we want the
keybindings capplet to show the Window Manager keybindings for Metacity;
do this through a _GNOME_WM_KEYBINDING property we put on the
_NET_SUPPORTING_WM_CHECK window and set to Mutter,Metacity.
See http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=594066 for the
gnome-control-center part of this.

It seems a bit cleaner to make the MUTTER_DEBUG_XINERAMA variable
that sets up fake Xinerama take effect even if Xinerama is active;
this means we don't count on Xinerama (or Xrandr if we switch tot
that) special casing the case of one monitor.

Unminimize minimized windows passed to meta_workspace_activate_with_focus()
by calling meta_window_activate() on them instead of meta_window_focus()
and meta_window_raise(). This fix makes sense because for the existing
usage inside Mutter meta_workspace_activate_with_focus() is never called
on a minimized window and for calls from outside Mutter there is no
point in focusing a minimized window without unminimizing it first.
Add a doc comment to meta_workspace_activate_with_focus().

The changes to enforce single handling of all key events were breaking
custom-alt-tab keypress handlers, since that code was assuming that
key event would get to process_tab_grab(), and then maybe to
process_event() and then to the plugin's xevent_filter to detect a
key release.
We centeralize all of this handling into process_tab_grab() and either
- Invoke a custom handler for the key press
- Select the current window on modifier release by calling a new
pseudo-binding "tab_popup_select"
- Cancel the grab on an unbound key by calling a new pseudo-binding
"tab_popup_cancel"

mutter_plugin_begin_modal() and mutter_plugin_begin_modal() allow putting
a plugin into a "modal" state. This means:
- The plugin has the keyboard and mouse grabbed
- All keyboard and mouse events go exclusively to the plugin
mutter-plugin.[ch]: Add public API
compositor.c compositor-private.h: Implement the API
mutter-plugin-manager.c: When reloading plugins, make sure none of them
are modal at that moment, and if so force-unmodal them.
common.h: Add META_GRAB_OP_COMPOSITOR
display: When display->grab_op is META_GRAB_OP_COMPOSITOR forward relevant
events exclusively to the compositor.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=590754
Only process each key event once. If all keys are grabbed, then
don't also look for handlers for a key shortcut after processing
the grab op. If all keys are grabbed or we find a key shortcut,
don't pass the event on to the compositing mananger.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=590754
The previous notification code was attempting to use the "modified"
boolean returned from set_title_text, but "that boolean doesn't mean
what you think it means". It actually means "I truncated the title".
Just always notify, it's far simpler than trying to compute
when we don't need to, and callers can compress if they really need
to.
mutter-window.c originally grew an #include "window-private.h" for
window->override_redirect, but that was just fixed. However since
then it also ended up relying on a few other minor private bits.
To fix that, add meta_window_is_mapped, promote meta_window_toplevel_is_mapped
to public, and use the public MetaDisplay accessor.
The functionality to propagate errors for other displays to other
a "foreign error handler" was Soeren's compositor and is no longer
being used. Remove it.
(Now that error.h is being installed and scanned, we need to either
do this or add XErrorEvent to xlib-2.0.gir and rename ErrorHandler
to MetaErrorHandler. This way is a bit simpler.)
It's useful for plugins to be able to get access to the
startup-notification data that Mutter already has. Add
an accessor and change signal when recieve an event.
When window initially maps, use the more recent of NET_WM_USER_TIME and
startup notification timestamps to compare against last known user action to
decide whether to focus the window or not. Once we show the window, clear
the initial_timestamp_set flag, so the startup notification timestamp is not
taken into account again.

Many override-redirect windows (including the Metacity UI windows!)
will have NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_NORMAL set on them because of shared
code paths with normal windows in toolkits.
Some current Compositor plugins (default plugin and gnome-shell)
check type == NORMAL to determine if to run effects. While fixing
such plugins to also check if the window is override-redirect is
posisble, it seems cleanest to simply not allow any of the decorated
window types to be set on an override-redirect window and to force
these types to META_WINDOW_OVERRIDE_OTHER. This will prevent other
similar problems from showing up in the future.
