Ok, so sorry @minborg I think this is mostly pointless.
The changes in XAtom might be useful in migrating some of the other X code but for XEmbeddingContainer, the right answer seems to be to delete it. Not sure if you feel like that is your problem to tackle.
But probably the XAtom changes should be deferred to something that provably uses it in real apps which would reduce this PR to "delete obsolete code".
