Ummm... I don't know what you really mean. The client always refers to
the same window it initially created. You can move it around in Ion's
window management hierarchy (cf. Mod1+A, Mod1+T & Mod1+K A, tab drag),
also to follow you around. Obviously you can automate this by attaching
a script to suitable hooks. 

The difficult part is that it would always appear at the same index in
a frame etc.; this demands exporting the placeholders to Lua side.
