Can one be notified that a window has been iconified?

I have an application where there are many windows created and dismissed
by the user and one main window which is the group leader.
In openwindows everything works fine when they are transient windows.
ie. easy dismissing, resizing, moving, and when the top level window is
iconified/deiconified they all disappear and reappear in their former places
because I made them "transient_for" the main window.

Unfortunately some window managers do not allow transient windows to be
moved, resized, or dismissed at the window manager level. But when I make
all windows top_level and tell them who the group leader is they don't
disappear when the main window is iconified.

In InterViews 2.6 the virtual methods Activate() and Deactivate() are
called when the interactor is maximized and iconified.

Glyph::undraw will be called on the top-level glyph in the window
when the window is iconified (or otherwise unmapped).
