Yes,i know, built xfce3 on Tru64. Send some patches too.

But is this nonstandard?

I can't find anything about this in freedesktop.org.
Is the maximize function standardized?
Is the binding to MB1 standardized?
Will this prevent building XFCE on other platforms?
I can stick with the xfce3 for a while.
But what can i expect in the future? Someone will standardize MY screen?
Will this in the end look like Tokyo by night or Disneyland (gnome & 
windoze)?
