Does Workrave 1.8.5 make this request?  Because the main Workrave
window certainly shows up in my window list (i.e., what I get with
Alt-Tab) and my pager.

I'd like to have the Workrave main window be on top (I've done this
via my window manager) and not show up otherwise in the window list or
pager.  Is there any way to accomplish this?

It seems I was mistaken.. Workrave only removes the break windows from the
windows list and pager.

Yes, Either by instructing you window manager to do so, or by changing
Workrave (except for the always on top, which can be configured)

Groetjes,

I'll file a enhancement/bug report for having the main window not show
up in the window list or pager.  But maybe only when “always on top”
is selected?  Maybe also need to not do this when iconified?  Does
this make sense?
