the one instance i can see this as a useful feature is i'd like to be
able to swallow my xlogout into FvwmButtons, but xlogout is started
before fvwm on my system. right now i'm getting around this by using
fvwm as my session manager as well, but just the way our system's login
procedure works, it takes much longer for fvwm to start this way. (the
wm is loaded, then any x apps specified in a ~/.startup.X11 file, then
the session manager...) i can't really see a use for unswallowing, but
somebody, sometime must have. :)
