Aside from following the documentation, the application shell can serve
as a group leader (removing the need to create an invisible window to do
this), it lets you set different windows with different resources.

I also think it will fix two problems that we've worked around -
manually propogating visual/colormap/etc to new windows, and bugs
session in management.  If you have 10 application shells, then the
session manager thinks there are ten applications.

If I can't find a workaround that allows tear-offs to work, I'll pull
out the fix.  I've tried manually closing the popups but I suspect
something is the reverse, somethings is double-deleting a shell.
