Summary: ignore window in alt-tab list

Initial Comment:
ignoreQuickSwitch: 1 is documented as removing the specified window from the alt-tab window list but it has not worked since icewm 1.2.5. The option was deprecated in icewm 1.2.1pre1. Is there some other way to achieve this functionality? I see the code is still there but just commented out with an #if 0 block.

My use-case is I run icewm 1.3.7 with gnome-panel and I do not want alt-tab to be able to focus on the top and bottom gnome-panels where the tray icons and the start menu goes.

In 1.3.7 wmoptions.cc:247
  if (*what == 2 && options[a].flag == YFrameWindow::foIgnoreQSwitch)
       DEPRECATE("ignoreQuickSwitch windowoption");
