Ok, from this discussion I have figured out that the title
bar is gonna look significatly different.

Now a question. I am just finishing up a nifty program that
has an iconify gadget place just to the left of the depth
gadgets. Is this going to break in 1.4?
The way I get it to be there, and show on top of the drag bar
is by:
	win=Openwindow(&nw);
	AddGadget(win,icongadget);

I doubt that this would wwork well if I wanted to put
a gadget to the right of the close gadget, since it would
cover the title.
Is there a better way to put extra gadgets in the title
bar and have them not be disturbed by the drag bar, ot
the title? If not, is there a way to do it in 1.4?

I did try many different things with gadget flags, but
only adding the gadget after opening the window worked.


Oh, another wish, how about centering window and screen
titles?
