Yes, the random name was my intent. I don't know if Matthew took this
as a serious name suggestion or not, (I just needed a better subject
line than "GPE").

But, in retrospect, it's unfortunate that UWM is taken, since it is
starting to grow on me, especially if pronounced properly.

UHM = Unnamed Handheld Manager?
      Unnamed Handheld window Manager?
