Re: UTF-8 ICCCM properties

MK>  WM_CLIENT_MACHINE
MK>  WM_ICON_NAME

These are properties, not selections.  They are not polymorphic, and
cannot be negociated.

This is exactly what the freedesktop.org WM specification mandates.

  http://freedesktop.org/Standards/wm-spec/1.3/

Please do not (single-sidedly) define Yet Another Convention.
