Nice to see that you're still thinking about wmx and new development is
happening from time to time - even though I'm not personally going to
use this new option, since I always have a gkrellm instance or two stuck
in the right of all channels.

Here, the clock appears in the foreground, not the background...
Screenshot attached, code from svn head, running with USE_COMPOSITE if
it makes any difference. Notice how the digits became corrupted: this
happens if the clock updates with another window below it.

Thanks!
