FYI You can also use XSettings to set some other things in matchbox
including;

  - cursor visibility ( /MATCHBOX/CURSOR - true/false )
  - Dialog parent lowlighting ( /MATCHBOX/LOWLIGHT - true/false )
  - Titlebar visibilty ( /MATCHBOX/TITLEBARS - true/false )

Im also beginning to get XSettings support into mbdesktop and mbdock.

It'd be great to have some sort of gconf-edit style frontend to
XSETTINGS and possibly even extending the spec to support some sort of
simple schema's and key descriptions.
