You don't want the window manager to behave in a certain way, you want a
clock without window decorations. The window manager is an
implementation detail.
I already told you this obviously is a choice. We choose not to provide
that functionality, because it is not generally useful and can be easily
achieved by the application (once you find out how ;-).
To convince us, mostly Olivier in this case, to implement a feature you
will have to convince us it is actually useful. "I want it, I want it, I
want it" is not enough reason.
