I guess I'm curious then, what's the goal? What does this provide beyond the Motif hint?
If it's "nothing, it's just standardizing it", then I'm against it. CSD requires a complete solution, and I'd rather see a complete solution standardized than a slightly-less-bad Motif hint. I could add support in mutter for the new state, but I wouldn't port GTK+ to it. The Motif hint has wider reach across a wide pool of existing WMs, and we'd just be regressing for no real gain. Not to mention that on WMs without support for client-set frame extents, we keep the "border" hint on so that users can resize the window through the WM-provided borders, even if they don't get a server-side titlebar.
