No, I don't think FvwmEvent is the way to handle anything. It's just plain buggy. Well, not really, but it's so slow that it regularly freezes fvwm itself or other modules if it's really used. In the long term, it should go into the fvwm core. But for now, it should suffice. In general, we may not want to make a specific solution for state changes in regard to focus policy. As you proposed for the "Style" rewrite, removing the distinction between window style and state already requires triggering arbitrary actions on state changes. If this is ever implemented we'll get the focus policy part for free.

But I still have my old test programs.) Yes, I know. We had a discussion about some problem your last fix introduced right before your wife was in the hospital. I disabled that patch later because I saw no immediate fix. It's still in the code, though (focus.c, focus_grab_buttons() and MoveFocus()).
