Per my reply to his post, where I suggested several defaults for window
names and class classes and names, I'm proceeding to do just that, as no
one posted any objections (A'rpi?).

I'll add the "-name" option too; it'll apply to the video window only, not
the GUI (control) window.

Stay tuned, I'll post the patches.
