  Client maintains the state of a client window. The state consists of the

  gravity.
  <p>
  Client also manages client messages for the client window. When the
  application (or any application) requests something to be changed for the
  client, it will call the ActionHandler (for client messages) or update the
  class' member variables and call whatever is nessary to complete the
  change (such as causing a redraw of the titlebar after the title is changed).
