Description

complementary patch for https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/100893
allows clients to block compositing at any time (to free resources) - interesting for games, videoplayer, screensavers...

we'd try to get this into netwm (since martin suggested compiz might be able to suspend/resume as well, there's actually some chance for it ;-)
even if not in netwm spec, it will prevent clients from having to care about XPropertiy setting/getting

Testing

compiled, the query works (used from kwin) - the setter... "should" ;-)
