    The doc's say that CurrentTime is not acceptable, but
    the ClientMessage event doesn't have a time field associated with it.

Since the format of a ClientMessage is entirely application convention,
you should adopt a convention of putting a timestamp in it.  Note that
the ICCCM places a timestamp in the data[1] field of format-32 messages
that it defines.
