I was just about to remove the tray menu icon's "Show Root Window" and
"Hide Root Window" items and add a single checked or unchecked item
called "Show Root Window". I figured I had better do a sanity check and
ask if there was a reason that this was not done in the first place... I
can't remember if I didn't do it this was just because I didn't know the
right functions to call, or if there was as valid but hidden reason for
doing this. Can anyone else recall a reason why this should not be done
with a check mark next to the menu item? It is supposed to be supported
since Windows 95, so compatibility is not an issue.
