Public bug reported:

I've discovered the following extremely significant problems with
WindowMaker behavior after upgrade to Quantal Quetzal 12.10:

* Loss of right click access to the WindowMaker system/applications
menu. Without this, I cannot launch apps, perform basic window manager
tasks such as changing the background or manage workspaces, or even log
out.

* Loss of middle click access to WindowMaker window menu. Without this,
I cannot switch to different windows via a menu list or review my open
windows

* Loss of WindowMaker key bindings. Although the settings seem to be in
place, key bindings I have assigned for the following functions do not
work:

  * Switch to next workspace
  * Switch to previous workspace

There may be others

I suspect that these are not bugs introduced by WindowMaker code, which
has been stable if stagnant but something else in 12.10 broke these
functions.

** Affects: wmaker (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
