Description Marc Fisher 2014-03-10 17:53:05 UTC 
In the current wire protocol, the window resizing and positioning methods take a windowHandle (which can be 'current' to operate on the current window).

Do we want to support this?

I remember we discussed it at TPAC 2013 and thought we decided to remove it but the notes from that part of the meeting[1] show much. I thought it was agreed that we would drop it as it wasn't needed and only work on the currently targeted window.

I will email the mailing list to see if anyone remembers if not can we come to some consensus.

No changes to the spec are required.
