I need to use XSendEvent in a widget which moves the pointer
on the screen and simulates button events based on input from
a digitizer (digitizer running on a different machine, served
by the lobotomized X Server).

As the description of XSendEvent is somewhat sketchy, I would
like to know more about:

 1) How is the "propagate" supposed to work with button
    event. My coding/testing shows that the event is
    delivered to the window specified in the call, and
    I have to simulate "propagate" by doing a lookup
    for a window which understands button events myself.

 2) How are handled any redirect windows (in particular,
    window manager input redirection).

 Thanx in advance ...
