+Many bugfixes and better support for the freedesktop.org EWMH spec.
+
+Thanks to Rob Adams, Anders Carlsson, Elijah Newren, Soeren Sandmann,
+Emil Soleyman-Zomalan, Michael Terry, and Jeff Waugh for fixes in this
+release.
+
+ - set titlebar_uses_system_font = false (it was ugly)
+ - make naming for "move a window"/"move the window"/"move window"
+ more consistent (fixes #142235)
+ - Add trailing quotes to keybinding explanation text.
+ - support for EWMH update counter spec & add compensation events
+ when events are ignored. (fixes #143333 and #109362)
+ - Fix focus bugs: remove race condition on window close/minimize
+ (#131582), make focus choice consistent for each focus mode
+ (#135810), choose correct focus window when "un-showing the
+ desktop (#144900), make sure correct window is focused when using
+ the workspace switcher (#120100).
+ - Use meta_topic instead of meta_warning when failing to connect to
+ a session manager; reduces metacity verbosity. (fixes #136218)
+ - Make meta_window_delete take a timestamp, and be sure to pass it
+ one.
+ - Add support for EWMH _NET_WM_USER_TIME spec. This enables part of
+ preventing focus stealing. (bug #118372) Also fix bug with
+ windows not being focused on unminimizing caused by original
+ patch. (also bug #118372)
+ - Fix some support for EWMH hints, and fix USER_TIME support to
+ include the DEMANDS_ATTENTION hint. Also includes some code for
+ implementing _NET_RESTACK_WINDOW and _NET_MOVERESIZE_WINDOW, but
+ this is disabled pending feature thaw.
