I recently started using an application which would throw up the window's "Urgent" hint every single time anything in the window updated, which was highly annoying, to say the least (esp. given that I'd have five of these windows open at once).
In response, I patched up my local icewm to support an "ignoreUrgentHint" winoption, which has restored sanity to my desktop. I'd like to think that...
