Ok so now say with Steam and all of it's games - it will be almost 100% unusable! Because we still haven't fixes managed/unmamaged windows. And Steam itself would be on top of everything. So the way people were able to work-around this is by putting Steam into virtual desktop. Now that means their game will run in the same desktop as well.
We could add some sort of per-app setting again, though it wouldn't work quite the same, apps in different desktops are a lot more isolated now. But if the only use for it is to work around managed mode bugs then it's probably not worth it, better to spend time fixing the real problem.
You announced working on the unmanaged window problem in September 2001 IIRC, but I guess you didn't so far? Wouldn't, for the time being, a Cedega-like approach be feasible? They seem to ignore 'chromeless' windows and handle them just like regular windows (with window decoration and all, for Steam for example) - this is obviously not correct, but it would at least work 'till someone comes up with a real fix...?
