My teeny little complaint about olvwm has to do with 'inheritance' of
stickiness.  When an application creates new base windows after the sticky
bit has been set, the new windows are *not* sticky, and I think they should
be.

The particular case that effects me is mailtool.  This mail interface puts
up a new base window for displaying the mail, and another for each item of
mail I am composing.  If I make mailtool sticky before displaying any mail,
the display window is NOT sticky, and the compose windows are NEVER sticky.

Could this be 'fixed'?
