In a way I agree with you, but at the same time... we already have this problem now. My web browser — and I'm not going to name names here— wants to provide its own decorations. And put close/minimize buttons not where all my other window manager buttons are.

OTOH I don't use *that* many apps not built around my desktop environment/X11 toolkit. The ones I do use already look/feel different, so adding window decoration into the mix isn't going to peeve me much more than it already does.

however Chrome does have the option of leaving the window decorations to the window manager (the first config option I changed)
