I've been wondering if more than one window can issue this ioctl.
Anybody tried it or know?

 Now that's something to look forward to!  I've been whacking away at
my own wmgr/smgr/phmgr replacement - you're right; I've learned alot
of stuff that I never encountered before.  I think it's just too
monumental a task for me, though.  Mine, like yours, is mostly
finished but that final 20% or so is killing me.  From your work I've
seen before, maybe I'll just give up on mine and wait for yours.
