[3ddesktop-dev] request: "--notyet" trivial to implement idea

*pitch* how about a flag --notyet to 3ddesk that doesn't activate that right/left/up/down desktop _just yet_ ?

i think of this because i am using 3ddesk with openbox3 and the bindings are for the middle wheel of my mouse when hovering the root window.... so, you scroll the wheel up and it does 3ddesk either where you have to scroll it AGAIN and then click, OR you end up with some funky situation where you're scrolling the button up and waiting up and waiting (each time running "3ddesk --gotoright") to get to the workspace you want (takes a long time).

"--notyet" would be used like...

/usr/bin/3ddesk --notyet --gotoright

it would activate 3ddesk, moving to the right, but it would still allow you to change your mind before activating that desktop.

love the program, together with a "multi-background-settings" gnome daemon (one background for each workspace), it put a big "wow" on the faces of everyone i've demoed it for.

it's funny, without 3ddesk you see all the flickering as gnome loads the background settings on a change, but using 3ddesk i think it gives gnome a chance to do all that and the point is it looks nearly flawless.

cheers
