Re: attach_new problems

Yes, 'set_mode' operates as expected, modifying the right frame.

A couple of hints that can help you to track down the issue:

First, this code operates inside 'clientwin_do_manage_alt' hook.  Inside
another 'clientwin_do_manage_alt' hook doing absolutely different thing
I have the same problem - the window is not added to a newly created
WGroupCW.

Second, attaching WClientWin to the same frame in ioncore.defer works
just fine.  This could be a solution, but I cannot create an empty
WGroupCW and later attach WClientWin in ioncore.defer instead of
'clientwin_do_manage_alt' hook.
