I vaguely recall the reason for the User-specified stuff was to avoid
problems with losing windowmanagers that don't let programs put up
windows without user-interaction. Is that still a problem?

'zwgc' is setting
size and position hints for the window manager but claiming that
they're from the *user* instead of from a *program*. Obviously,
vtwm doesn't distinguish between the two but tvtwm does.
Here's a patch:

*** 293,299 ****
sizehints.y = ypos;
sizehints.width = xsize;
sizehints.height = ysize;
! sizehints.flags = USPosition|USSize;
wmhints.input = True;
wmhints.initial_state = NormalState;

I checked through the rest of the Zephyr source tree and found the
same bug in Zephyr/src/zwgc/backups/xshow.c, but that doesn't appear
to be used...
