What I meant was that calling XFixesSetWindowShapeRegion() with a None
region didn't do anything at all. The old region simply stayed in place.
Is there any documentation what is supposed to happen when passing a None
region? Does passing None mean "remove current window shape region" or
what is None supposed to do?
