Then, how to achieve the opposite? Naturally, I want all dialogs/windows to appear
on the screen when the main window is opened. Redefine Glyph::draw doesn't sound
like a good idea. It would be very convenient to have the iconify mechanism working
just like quit-window, which can be assigned a handler by a call to wm_delete.

By the way, what is the use of group_leader in TopLevelWindow? I haven't seen it
being used anywhere.
