And I don't think I want you to do the WM's job.

You're welcome to keep going to great effort to do the wrong thing,
but be aware that nobody will appreciate the work you're doing, and in
fact are more likely to curse you for it. Just save yourself a LOT of
hassle and let the WM do its job. It knows the user's wishes better
than you do.
