// that we select PointerMotionMask on every window. we also select
// SubstructureNotifyMask in order to get CreateNotify events so we
// select events on new windows too.
//
// note that this can break certain clients due a design flaw of X.
// X will deliver a PointerMotion event to the deepest window in the
// hierarchy that contains the pointer and has PointerMotionMask
// selected by *any* client. if another client doesn't select
// motion events in a subwindow so the parent window will get them
// then by selecting for motion events on the subwindow we break
// that client because the parent will no longer get the events.
// FIXME -- should provide some workaround for event selection
// design flaw. perhaps only select for motion events on windows
// that already do or are top-level windows or don't propagate
// pointer events. or maybe an option to simply poll the mouse.
// we don't want to adjust our grab window

// a window, motion events will be delivered to that window's parent.
// If *any* client, not necessarily the owner, selects PointerMotionMask
// on such a window, X will stop propagating motion events to its
// parent. This breaks applications that rely on event propagation
// behavior.
//
// Avoid selecting PointerMotionMask unless some other client selected
// it already.
