The patch is attached (works fine with new metacity).
If there are no complains I will aplly it (and later documentation changes).

Changes:
- support command line parameter -fstype, eg. -fstype layer:12,netwm:above
- help (-fstype help) also availabible
- support state BELOW (someone may want to use it...) and, by -fstype none forcing of
  not chaning window layer (user request)
- drop icelayer option, it can be set by -fstype layer:<number>
- simplify vo_x11_fullscreen:
  * change decoraions etc. also for STATE_FULLSCREEN (too much mess and
    would be not really nice with new framework)
  * don't check for wm type on each fullscreen change (it is stupid and will not work
    properly in most cases)

And cleanup:
- use mp_msg (with MSGT_V) instead of mp_dbg and printf later :-)
- drop vo_wm_Unknow stupididty (use 0 instead)
- and more...
