The problem with xwd not working correctly under swm or tvtwm is due to the
fact that the subwindow member of the of the button press event comes back
with the window id of the virtual desktop window. XmuClientWindow()
is called with this window id which simply looks through the descendants
for a client window (one with WM_STATE set). This of course results in
getting some window rather than the one under the pointer. Perhaps
we need a new Xmu routine that takes an xy coordinate pair and returns
the topmost client window at that location?
I could write such a thing if there's interest?
