In order to get XCB_WINDOW_NONE as a constant, we ended up with enum
xcb_window_t, which conflicts with the xidtype xcb_window_t.
My preference at the time was for renaming enum xcb_window_t to
xcb_window_enum or similar.
Now I think I'd prefer a "white list" of old enum names that would
continue to be named _t, with new enums named with _enum or similar.
Thoughts?
