Hey I second that! Adam, If you make a patch to xepdmgr that does the busy led stuff, that would be awesome :-). The method I tried in the hacked libX11 failed miserably (and I attempted several before settling with one of them!).

About the window class stuff: that would mean that xepdmgr opens a window with the "sh" class name, and then it would have to redirect the keystrokes it receives to the window of the application...and it doesn't know the window to redirect it :-/.

Perhaps if there is a way to query the z-order of the windows and use the window with highest z-order (ignoring the ones of the panel, the pagebar and the soft-keyboard, of course)...

For now I think that setting the correct class in the app is a reasonable compromise, but for the future sure it's worthwhile goal :-).
