This sounds like it might be a bug.  You should be receiving a REDRAWICONIC
since you've queued that event.  There is no special tidy icon event.

The window server (NeWS server) remembers all the windows your program opened
and keeps track of them.  We worked pretty hard to make this multiwindow
stuff sensible.
