[Plash] Nitpicker GUI

I just came across Nitpicker, which is a tool written to stop X GUI
applications messing with each other. A paper describing Nitpicker is
up at:
     http://os.inf.tu-dresden.de/papers_ps/feske-nitpicker.pdf

It will be released under the GPL, and a LiveCD demonstrating its
powers is availiable at:
     http://os.inf.tu-dresden.de/~nf2/projects/projects.html

I thought that this would be of interest to the Plash list as X is the
major existing security hole that Plash constrained apps can still
misuse.
