[Pkg-xfce-devel] Bug#500949: xfwm4: Please don't blink endlessly

[Cyril Brulebois]

Package: xfwm4
Version: 4.4.2-5
Severity: normal

'lo.

I've just experienced this, which is very boring: play say openarena windowed,
with gajim underneath, basically playing while waiting for someone's input.
Assume someone talks, gajim sends urgent hint or the like, and its window
borders start blinking. That might be just a bit boring, but that's worse. It
*never* stops blinking. I guess a reasonable number (< 10), or better yet, a
configurable number of blinks could be implemented.

Thanks for considering.

Cheers,
