[Bug 486922] Re: synergys interfering with gnome panel window list

[Petr Vandrovec]

I had to reboot my box, so I've given theoretical Xsession.d code I
described in #16 a try, and indeed setting it there does not work if you
are using gnome-session, as for unknown reason gtk+2.0 refuses to pass
variable down to applications it starts.  So gnome-session itself uses
native windows - which is of no use for you (it creates no windows
itself), as you need gnome-panel and all other gnome apps started by
gnome-panel to use native windows.

Rebuilding gtk+2.0-2.18.5-1 with attached patch, reinstalling built
libgtk2.0-0, and setting value to 'inherit' is propagated correctly
through whole hierarchy of GTK applications, so now 'export
GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=inherit' in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/11petr works, and
forces all gtk applications you start (and apps spawned by these apps)
to use native windows.
