My #1 beef with Windoze is that it lacks a foreground-locking 
capability.  I want to be able to deny ALL apps the ability to
interrupt what I'm doing sometimes.  Of course, X doesn't AFAIK
have this ability either.  I wonder if it's possible to write
a third-party utility to suspend any app that tries to sieze
the foreground...  but really, that's not what I want either.
I want them to keep running in the BACKGROUND, like I had them.
