We got XCB_EVENT_MASK_SUBSTRUCTURE_NOTIFY on the root window, but we also have
XCB_EVENT_MASK_STRUCTURE_NOTIFY on the individual client windows. Since we are
reparenting our windows, we can safely ignore all UnmapNotifies that we get
through the root window.
This fixes a bug if there were any windows already present before awesome
started. Those were obviously already mapped which means that ReparentWindow
would cause an UnmapNotify for them on the root window. This commit makes us
ignore that UnmapNotify and thus not throwing away the window immediately again.

awesome
=======
awesome is a highly configurable, next generation framework window manager for X.
Building and installation
-------------------------
After extracting the dist tarball, run:
make
This will create a build directory, run cmake in it and build awesome.
After building is finished, you can install:
make install # you might need root permissions
Running awesome
---------------
You can directly select awesome from your display manager. If not, you can
add the following line to your .xinitrc to start awesome using startx
or to .xsession to start awesome using your display manager:
exec awesome
In order to connect awesome to a specific display, make sure that
the DISPLAY environment variable is set correctly, e.g.:
DISPLAY=foo.bar:1 exec awesome
(This will start awesome on display :1 of the host foo.bar.)
Configuration
-------------
The configuration of awesome is done by creating a $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/awesome/rc.lua file.
An example configuration named "awesomerc.lua.in" is provided in the source.
Troubleshooting
---------------
In most systems any message printed by awesome (including warnings and errors)
are written to $HOME/.xsession-errors.
If awesome does not start or the configuration file is not producing the desired
results the user should examine this file to gain insight into the problem.
