What puzzles me is that there is code to treat a gnustep app in a very
particular way regarding focus. This means that a gnustep app:
1. Will not get focused.
2. will never get its titlebar texture updated conforming to its
   focused/unfocused state.

In other words its treated as it never exists.

I wasn't able to figure out why this behavior is necessary, and none of
the wmaker developers put the code to do this in wmaker.
Alfredo told me that the code to do this was sent by you as a patch and
was added without modifications.

I've disabled this particular treating of gnustep apps for the moment
in the cvs copy of wmaker. please test and let me know how it works. 
If any of the above behavior is somehow needed by gnustep apps (I failed
to understand the reasoning behind a treatment such as the one above)
then let me know and we can investigate what exactly of that patch
should be enabled.
