The _NET_CLIENT_LIST property of the root window:
> These arrays contain all X Windows managed by the Window Manager.
Dock clients are not managed windows, so they should not be included in
_NET_CLIENT_LIST or _NET_CLIENT_LIST_STACKING.
Workspaces won't work properly if they start with "__", so reserve that
namespace altogether. Disallow renaming workspaces to reserved namespace
and using reserved namespace in configuration.
Fixes#1209.
The fullscreen_mode event is a window with the "change" property set to
"fullscreen_mode". This event should be emitted whenever a window enters
or exits fullscreen mode.
This event can be used to turn off dpms off when a window is fullscreen
or display the fullscreen container name in the status line for
instance.
Send all the options in the bar block on the barconfig_update event.
This will eventually allow for dynamically updating bar colors with the
`reload` command.
Do not handle click events on dock clients because they are not managed
windows. Dock clients are responsible for sending the message to i3 to
focus a workspace if that is appropriate. i3bar now sends the message to
focus the correct workspace when that is appropriate.
Otherwise, it could interfere with the dock clients own click handling,
which could be an action to focus a different workspace than i3 had
assumed, such as would be the case with a workspace widget.
The log message at the top of ipc_send_window_event would segfault when
no xcb window is present, such as for a split container.
The log now shows the con id which is more relevant anyway.
If a `bindsym` config directive specifies a symbol beginning with
"button", the binding will be given the type B_MOUSE for the indicated
button number.
Example:
bindsym $mod+button2 exec echo 'button two'
This will be interpreted as having input code (now `keycode`) 2 and type
B_MOUSE.
The mechanism to find and run mouse bindings on mouse events is not
implemented.
The spec says:
“Implementations must take care not to expand field codes into multiple
arguments unless explicitly instructed by this specification. This means
that name fields, filenames and other replacements that can contain
spaces must be passed as a single argument to the executable program
after expansion.”

When checking the window type for a resize command, first check to see
if the window property is null before checking whether or not it is a
dock window. The window may be null in the case it is a branch
container.

Port sighandler to tree-branch
blocks SIGPIPE. Unfortunatelly blocked signal set is preserved accross
execve()s, so any program executed by i3 inherited blocked SIGPIPE signal.
This leads to courious effects when pipe writer does not terminate after
exiting pipe reader.
Simple reproducer is to spawn a new xterm by a key shortcut and then run this
command there:
$ perl -e 'print $SIG{PIPE}, qq{\n}'
IGNORE

If input focus is set by the window manager, it is not necessary to send
WM_TAKE_FOCUS because it has already taken focus.

Both setting input focus and sending WM_TAKE_FOCUS is effectively
setting focus on the window twice which is certainly against the spirit
of the spec, if not the letter.

Add and update the _NET_CLIENT_LIST property on the root window to
better comply with ewmh standards.
Information on this property can be found here:
http://standards.freedesktop.org/wm-spec/latest/ar01s03.html
> These arrays contain all X Windows managed by the Window Manager.
> _NET_CLIENT_LIST has initial mapping order, starting with the oldest window.
fixes#1099
Otherwise, we read random garbage. Found by the testsuite due to
t/185-scratchpad.t failing because a window was incorrectly recognized
as a floating window.
According to 4.1.7 of the iccm spec
http://tronche.com/gui/x/icccm/sec-4.html#s-4.1.7
> Windows with the atom WM_TAKE_FOCUS in their WM_PROTOCOLS property may
> receive a ClientMessage event from the window manager (as described in
> section 4.2.8) with WM_TAKE_FOCUS in its data[0] field and a valid
> timestamp (i.e. not CurrentTime ) in its data[1] field.
Adds the timestamp parameter to send_take_focus to avoid the dangerous
use of a global variable.
This memory leak is related to matching on con_id or matching when the
container has a null window. In that case, windows that do not match
would leak the owindow struct.
This memory leak is associated with matching by a criteria that uses a
regular expression. Without freeing a regex before calling match_init,
it will definitely be lost.
BAIL_OUT produces a friendlier message explaining why the tests cannot
continue on the command line. `die` produces a cryptic message that some
test failed for some reason.
