Hi Evgeny!

The latest XWEM ("lg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/xwem--main--2.2--patch-1",
"lg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/xlib--main--2.2--patch-1") is running pretty damn
good here. :-)

I especially like the improvements you've made to xwem-desktop.
Saving/restoring client info is a _very_ welcome addition. :-) But
there are a couple of issues with it though...

  - some clients don't get saved (Mozilla, Firefox, xsensors, are ones
    I've seen that refuse to be saved/restored)

  - clients are restarted in the correct frames, but not necessarily
    in the correct order within the frame.  Actually, I think this
    would be easily fixed because the clients are in exact reverse
    order. 

  - `xwem-desktop-save-onetime' does nothing if the onetime files
    already exist.  That means if you want to update the onetime
    settings you must delete the onetime files first.

Thanks Evgeny for making a great WM even greater! :-)
