add _NET_WM_FULL_PLACEMENT, cuz openbox does do placement, even tho it can be sucky right now, lol. but it's good for dialogs and stuff, which is what this is talking about.

wow... this is a big commit...
all related to _NET_WM_USER_TIME and focus stealing prevention
a) add launcher startup notification. this means when you run something from
the openbox menu or a key/mouse binding, that startup notification will go
on in openbox and other applications like your panel or something
b) add the _NET_WM_USER_TIME property for windows
c) use the _NET_WM_USER_TIME data and startup notification to prevent focus
stealing.
d) cookie party !! ! all are invited.
e) oh yeah, and pass around timestamps for a lot more things. like, when you
run an action, send the timestamp for the event that is running the action.
this is important for startup notification. this also affects menus.
f) yes.. cookies..
would it be a good idea to disable focus stealing prevention if a window takes
too long to load? i mean.. maybe after a certain length of time, a user can't be
expected to not do anything in any other windows, but would they still want the
new application to focus then? HMM. open question i guess..

add the _NET_WM_USER_TIME property support. When focus_new is enabled, don't focus new windows if the user is doing something in another window since it launched. If we can tell when it launched, either from the _NET_WM_USER_TIME or from startup notification.

a) remove the top_grip_height business from the theme

Split RrPaint to RrPaint and RrPaintPixmap, so you can paint things other than windows. If you don't free the returned pixmap though, you will be leaking memory in the server!

scary commit..but here goes.
YOUR THEMES ARE NOW OFFICIALLY BROKEN.
Openbox has just moved it's theme format to an XML based one. The details of
this format can be found in data/themerc.xsd (and http://openbox.org/themerc.xsd
ALSO! This is very good and important and stuff! In the tools directory you
will find THEMETOXML ! This tool takes a themerc on stdin, and spits out
the same theme in theme.xml format. So this is all you need to do to update
your themes.
PLEASE NOTE: This themetoxml does _not_ install itself anywhere. It simply
builds and then lives out in its tools/themetoxml directory, and that's it. So
if you want to use it, that is where to find it.
In moving to the new XML format, a number of additions/changes to the theme
engine have been made. Themetoxml takes these into account and will set all
the new things appropriately to make your theme look the same as it always has.
New additions include..
* padding now has an horizontal and vertical component, instead of being one number
* menus can have different borders than windows (color and size)
* menu offset can now be negative. it's a little weird, but someone will want it no doubt
* fonts are no longer controled by the theme at all, however font shadowing is, and on that note..
* font shadows are now any color you want, not just black and white
* you can now set the shadow anywhere you can set the text's color, so you have more control, i.e. you can set shadow on active menu items but not inactive, or disabled, etc.
* every color now has an alpha channel. at the moment they don't do anything, besides the font shadow one, but it leaves room for future explorations. it is REALLY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED that you set the alpha to 255 all the time, until such time as it could be useful. otherwise one day your theme may turn awful for people.
* font colors are in the range 0-255, in case you were wondering, and they have to be specified in decimal
* if you'd like to change you font's you can do so in your configuration file. this is how it is going to stay. changing the font in the theme assumes too much about peoples eye sight and locality and stuff. it doesn't belong there, sorry. the system-wide default rc.xml includes the new font settings for your viewing pleasure, and ill drop an example of it below.
* shadows can now be positioned in any direction, they have both an x and a y offset which can be negative and positive. and offset of 0,0 will disable the shadow
This isn't a release or anything. If someone had some good ideas about the xml theme format, I'd like to hear them. But I don't think it will be changing much right now beyond where it is. I don't even know how the new functionality will play out for themers, so we'll see.
Whew.. I guess that's it. I'm not sure if I mentioned every little change or not, but oh well. Mileage may vary.. Please send any feedback.
Here's the font configuration example. Hopefully ObConf will let you set this real soon.

oops... I'm combining two different things in this commit... so I'll try be clear
1. when another wm requests to replace openbox, openbox exits. but the SM will just restart openbox unless we tell it not to. so now ob_exit_replace() will change the session manager's view of openbox to not restart it. that way the new WM will be able to run.
2. allow windows to move themselves off of the screen 90% of the way, if they really want to. but only 90% to the left, right, and bottom of the screen. it won't let the app move off the top of the screen on its own at all now, since hiding the titlebar on you without you being a part of the process is pretty darn evil!
this is really to address bug # 2982 - for the tilda application. but i guess if windows really want to move off the screen, who's to say no? also, every other window manager will let them - except metacity won't let them on the left/top side of the screen.

better string matching for duplicate title numbering. this will check against the whole window's title. it used to check less than the full length sometimes. thanks to logan for patches and ideas!
Valid place="" are ActiveWindow, InactiveWindow, MenuTitle, and MenuItem.
Only valid weight is "bold"
Valid slants are "italic" and "oblique"
shadowTint is a value between -100 and 100
size is the font size in points. pixelsize could possibly be added in the form of 8px, but it's not right now.
the name can contain multiple families and they will all be used to match characters
You can omit any fields and get the default for it. You can omit naming a font for a place="" and get the default font for it.
This is completely replacing theme-specified fonts, for better or for worse. Font shadowing may go back into the theme at some point, instead of in the rc.xml.

don't change the restart type with the session manager when openbox exits. it's not like something else will magically run instead. if we exit, we should get started again, that's why --replace exists.

ok this time for real...
add --reconfigure option to openbox.
this option will open the display, find the current openbox's PID from the root window, and send a SIGUSR2 to it, telling it to reconfigure. then it exits.
also no longer printing help if you pass an invalid argument to openbox (because i want to parse arguments for --reconfigure before i start up the session management stuff)

make a copy of the argc and argv instead of modifying the real ones
this means that when openbox is restared it doesn't lose it's SM related command line args, they get passed to the new openbox same as they were passed to the one exiting.

pango is now mandatory..
lots of cleanups to the pango code, which was a very nice base to start from. thanks to whomever wrote that for us.. put some of the pango variables into the various render structs so that they don't need to be created all the time. put the pango context inside our RrInstance so that it can be properly freed at shutdown. removed xft dependencies all through the code and the build system also. who knows if this will break compiling for some poor souls. i guess we'll find out, won't we!

this includes a number of things since my magnificent return....
1. some random compiling/style cleanups
2. some bigfixes
- mislogic in per-window-settings and focusing new windows
- use client_can_focus rather than checking variables for directional focus
- MAYBE fix all those lock-ups forever. using event_curtime (a new variable) now instead of event_lasttime. event_lasttime is still used however when the event being processed did not have a time associated with it. this may or may not be a problem, and will be seen.
3. um.. i forget
4. oh yeah, 3rd party docks are now treated like the internal ob dock irt focus. that is, clicking on them won't pass them focus. this is going to be ratified as expected behavior in the wm-spec just now. if docks/panels want focus they can request it with _net_active_window, and then they can have all the focus they want! one day alt-tabbing around dock windows might be nice. but not until the ob dock is moved out into a separate application. going to have to add a wmapp selection and stuff for that though... ugly. who uses wmdockapps anymore !? someone must.. *sigh*
