I just thought it looked better that way ...

Under X11 with windowmaker, the appearance is pretty much the same either 
way, but under windows the native looks is less good once I'd modifed it to 
create windows as 'tool' windows so they didn't all appear in the task bar.  
I couldn't figure out a way to get a consistent window border look while 
excluding windows which shouldn't be in the task bar from it ... except by 
having the gui draw the window decorations.

Having various panels appear in the taskbar is a little irritating ... 
having the window used to drag and drop an image appear in the taskbar was 
downright horrible.  Maybe there is a better solution to exclude windows 
from the taskbar ... but I'm not a windows programmer, so I don't know of 
one.
