 I found POPwatch and NEWwatch here;

 If you hope to fix this compatibility issue, I would strongly suggest
that we agree on a new wind_get mode instead. I will for sure not follow
the current implementation.

 I think that mode 13 is free for use, between WF_NEXTXYWH(12) and
WF_NEWDESK(14). Anyone know if this mode is used for anything?
