CLX design issues

From: Kerry Kimbrough <Kimbrough@dsg.csc.ti.com>
I'm interested in starting a discussion on cl-windows that will resolve such
issues. Anyone else?
SYNOPSIS:
CLX should define a colormap-visual accessor to paper over a shortcoming of
the protocol.
I think this is a fine idea. In the R4beta CLX, there is a colormap slot
called colormap-visual-info. Charlie Hornig contributed it.
SYNOPSIS:
query-best-cursor interface does not fully support the underlying
QueryBestSize request.
This sounds good too. The spec should change, but to remain compatible with
existing clients the implementation should handle a display passed to it too.
I updated the source.
SYNOPSIS:
For sake of consistency with other CLX functions, should change certain
argument data types:
(declare (type (member :on :off :default) blanking exposures))
Sounds fine too. But for compatibility, :yes and :no should be allowed too.
I updated the source.
SYNOPSIS:
wm-resources/set-wm-resources are inappropriate interfaces.
Sounds fine. For compatbility, wm-resources & set-wm-resources should be
still there, though.
I updated the source.
SYNOPSIS:
Exposing the value-mask component of :configure-request is not the best Lisp
interface.
I don't understand this enough.
