I think I wouldn't be unhappy if someone would write a window matching 
utility with a gui to change the actions.

Possibilities:
- transparency
- change icon
- borderless
- sticky/on-top
- sounds?
- other things people request all the time, but I have forgotten

It might make more sense to use devilspie for this, I don't know.
