wm needs to track both and determine which one takes precedence based

a wm implements - that's the nature of the beast. that policy may be
hard-coded in the wm or configuration for it.
I've been looking at existing window properties [1] to try and
understand the best way to do this.
option1: New atoms in the _NET_WM_STATE property.
- _NET_WM_STATE_LANDSCAPE
- _NET_WM_STATE_PORTRAIT
If neither is present for a given window, WM can choose (based on the
accelerometers). Both present is an error - or could be defined as leave
the window in it's current orientation.
option2: New property.
_NET_WM_ORIENTATION
0 = Either / WM decides
1 = Landscape
2 = Portrait
Thoughts?

OT - but I'm struggling with e's xnest.sh script:
xhost +
su newuser
Xnest -ac :1 &
env DISPLAY=":1" enlightenment_start &
works, but:
xhost +
su newuser
/data/programming/e17/e17_src/e/xnest.sh
doesn't. Initially it ran through e's firstrun wizard in an xnest, then
crashed - now it dies on start. I've attached the xnest.sh output - any
ideas?
