RFC: Mauve and java.awt.Robot?

[Norman Hendrich]

Hello Thomas,

OK, got them now.

Sounds good; I will prepare some AWT/Swing tests as time allows.

Is there a 'reference' window manager that should be used together with
Xvfb?  Window placement, in particular, is often highly dependent on the
window manager, its configuration, and its bugs...
