* There is of course a third issue to be considered and that is the
modification
* of window managers to be multi-level aware.  Typically, window managers are
* modified to display the label of each X window on each window.  An
alternative
* approach is to create a screen stripe that displays the label of the
currently
* in focus window.

You really need a trusted window manager to ensure that the "trusted path" or
what you're calling the "screen stripe" can't be spoofed.

Of course fixing it for "n" window managers is an excellent way of getting
people to contribute :-).
