[Cin] Weird world of WINDOW_CONFIG!

[Phyllis Smith]

*Andrew,*
If I write up a short description on this for the Manual, will you check it
out for correctness?  I am not sure I could test it and get it all right
(and want to finish other things I am in the middle of).  BTW, I believe
these changes from the way CV worked were made to accommodate using CinGG
to watch broadcast TV - which is scenario "config set only compositor on B"
where B was the television.

What does IIC mean?  "Impact Insulation Class" does not sound right.  Does
it mean "I'm internally chuckling"?

Will add this as a feature request.

Good suggestions.  It was brought up before to include the "git commit tag"
but I can not remember why it was not implemented.
