781again and again- for example, if your background expression takes the root
782background, blurs it and then root-aligns it it would have to blur the
783root background on every window move or resize.

785Putting the blur into a C<once> block will make sure the blur is only done

790This leaves the question of how to force reevaluation of the block, in
791case the root background changes: Right now, all once blocks forget that
792they ahve been executed before each time the root background changes (if
