Extending EWMH beyond application windows

Hi,

Could the EWMH properties and client messages be extended to cover
different views inside an application window as well, where applicable? 
A view being like a tab in tabbed browser, or different mode in PIM
application (mail, calendar, ...)

I mean, where EWMH talks about root and application windows, it could in
my opinion by extension cover also application window and its views as
well.  Semantics should be quite identical.  This would allow making
more information available to pagers and task lists and the like.

Is this making any sense?
