I have desktop/gnome/applications/window_manager and two keys:

current
default

the latter is set to /usr/bin/metacity

I tried setting current to sawfish (/usr/X11R6/bin/sawfish) but that
didn't work. Tried setting default, still got metacity. Tried setting
BOTH to sawfish, got metacity.

Also tried the same with /usr/X11R6/bin/startsawfish. No matter what I
do, I get metacity.

It's very persistent. <g>
