I had an idea about how to make the window remembering stuff more user
friendly. In the remember menu, there are many "Match by x" options.
I suggest that it would be helpful to add the actual value used for the
match to the text of these menu options, so they would become "Match by
x : y". Where if x=Class, y would be the actual class of the window
for instance.
Most don't know anything about the internal workings of X, and would
have no idea about what Window name, class, role, type, or transient
status even mean, let alone how to find out what they are for a
particular window. Window title is different, as that is shown in the
title bar, but I think it should be added to the menu like the others
for consistency.
My suggestion would put the information right where the user needs it.
It would also go a long way to solving the "I set remember for my email
client, but I don't want the remembered settings applying to it's
configuration window and address book." problems.
