WARNING: if you reload Qtile you'll have a hard time getting windows
affected by this function to appear on screen so I wouldn't recommend it
unless you are desperate.
In the mean time this config function *might* work as a temporary fix (I I
couldn't find any programs I have installed that returned _NET_WM_STATE so
its only partially tested)
```
from libqtile import qtile
@hook.subscribe.client_managed
def hide_window(window):
if "_NET_WM_STATE_SKIP_TASKBAR" in window.window.get_net_wm_state():
wid = window.window.wid
window.window.set_property("WM_STATE", (0, 0))
qtile.unmanage(wid)
```
