Hmm, I recall using your patches, but I couldn't get manualtransient
to work the way I wanted... could you provide a usage pattern so I can
retry it and see if I'm just doing something retarted?

Still, it's irritating to have to split and resize like that for a
quick gimp-ing job.
I guess I could probably save a frameset and restore it when I start the Gimp.
