Yes and no. vos have to handle some part of the aspect stuff as fixating
the aspect of the window. But i agree that the way it is currently done
is not ok and should be fixed. In the case of the x11 modules, beastd
is already working and nearly finished with a new aproach to fix it.
Hopefully it will get rid of most of your window handling problems on
unix.
