Hi,

As some usability-related features are being discussed of late, I would like to
bring these proposals to the table:

-Activate autocompletion by default in the app launch box. It would be a nice
feature if it came out of the box for newcomers - that is, unless it involves
some tradeoff I am unaware of.

-Include either Docker or wmsystray among the dockapps that are proposed to be
shipped in the default install of Window Maker.

-Enforce the NoKeyBindings property (this one appears more as a bug). To
clarify, here is my use case: on the bottom-right corner of my screen sits
xdaliclock (a clock) in a transparent window without decorations nor appicon.
The window is omnipresent and is meant to stays inert: it does not get focus nor
appears in the widows list. When I want to peek at the clock if it is masked by
other windows, I minimize them through keyboard shortcuts. All is fine if I do
it active window by active window, but if I miniaturize all windows at once,
xdaliclock gets swallowed as well.
Here is the relevant snippet of my WMWindowAttributes file:

  xdaliclock.XDaliClock = {
    NoResizebar = Yes;
    NoMouseBindings = Yes;
    NoBorder = Yes;
    KeepInsideScreen = Yes;
    NoAppIcon = Yes;
    NoKeyBindings = Yes;
    SkipWindowList = Yes;
    SkipSwitchPanel = Yes;
    NoCloseButton = Yes;
    NoTitlebar = Yes;
    NoMiniaturizeButton = Yes;
    Omnipresent = Yes;
    Unfocusable = Yes;
  };

Thank you for your work !

Camille d'Alméras
