Thanks Per,
I had tried sawfish-config, and when I packaged it, doc-strings didn't get installed, so it wasn't working quite correctly. I've fixed my packaging now and was able to make a rule for Xephyr.

So, you specifically want to do it "manually" in .sawfishrc? I have
successfully used the Configurator to create such rules via Customize
-> Window Rules, with Action set to frame-type=border-only (OK, a
*little* decoration) or frame-type=none (*no* decoration). This
generates stuff like this in .sawfish/custom (indentation mine) - I
don't know whether it can be copied to .sawfishrc, nor do I see much
point in doing so...
(custom-set-typed-variable
(quote match-window-profile)
(quote ((((WM_CLASS . "^XCpu/")) (frame-type . border-only))
(((WM_NAME . "^xvnoframe")) (frame-type . border-only))
(((WM_CLASS . "^xclock/")) (frame-type . none))))
(quote match-window)
(quote sawfish.wm.ext.match-window))
