We need ReStyle (or StyleAgain or ReStyleWindow) command that reevaluates the context window style (no name events should be sent). Absense of such command is one of the main reasons why RecaptuteWindow can't be removed. Probably having Style option AutoReStyleOnNameChange would solve the Carl's problem better, this is a pretty reasonable feature.
