I can only guess since the package's documentation only quotes the
comment lines from the prefs file:


RWC = RootWindowClick
URB = UseRootButtons


(RWC and URB) -> gets processed by icewm

(RWC - (RWC and URB)) -> gets passed to GNOME by icewm


This is what I would read from the word "bitmask".
Thus URB=0 completely hides RWCs from icewm whereas
URB=255 (=7) completely hides RWCs from GNOME because they
get processed by icewm.

This (URB=0) should do no harm though CTRL+ALT+RWC seems
to set URB=255 for that particular click.
