[comp.windows.x] tvtwm sticky icons?

Is there a way, in tvtwm, to specify that all icons should be sticky
(other than using the icon manager, of course).

Actually, interactively "sticking" an icon will make not only the icon
sticky, but the associated window as well.  Now what would be *really* nice
is to have *just* the icons being sticky.  That way you could keep your icons
always accessible in a fixed place on the display, and on deiconification the panner would warp to the portion of the desktop where the window resides.

Maybe something like StickyIcons{ ... }  in the next tvtwm release ?
