Well, when you start kdcop and poke around a bit you will find that many
(not all) apps have an interface "mainwindow" or
"<appname>-MainWindow#1". These interfaces have methods "bool
isActiveWindow()", "QString caption()" and "void setCaption(QString
caption)".
There's a (c++) function DCOP::findObject() which allows you to use
wildcards to find out which application and which interface is
answering with "true" to the call to "bool isActiveWindow".
So, IMO it is possible *without* modifying kde. It does not look however
as if this DCOP::findObject() can be called from a script using dcop,
but a small C++ program should do what you want. I don't really know,
but maybe kdebindings will enable you to use some scripting language to
do this.
