This is indeed a big undertaking, seeing as there is 50.000+ instances of "window" in the tree to consider. I have made a few false starts, but it's hard to decide the best way to start with such a big task. I'm currently bogged down with real world commitments and dropped the ball a bit here, but if there is interest I might be able to take another stab at it when things clear up.
