I would like to ignore the bar in xwobf. Any way to do this with a role="thing"?

It might be doable if you query for the window name and filter based on that. You'd need to know the window name of the bar though. I'm currently not able to do any development, I don't use xwobf myself anymore and it doesn't even work in my current desktop environment, so I'm unable to test any code. But if you can cook up a pull request I'd be happy to review it. I'd recommend starting to look at xcb_get_property: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/xenial/en/man3/xcb_get_property.3.html

@glindste I'll try to hack something up. Thanks.

I would see this also being useful for not obfuscating Conky (or hiding Conky, depending on what the user wants). I think it is fine to expect the users to execute a command quite like:

xprop -f XWOBF_NOBLUR 8c -set XWOBF_NOBLUR 0x1
or
xprop -f XWOBF_HIDE 8c -set XWOBF_HIDE 0x1
