// CURSOR, FONT, GCONTEXT, and COLORMAP by choosing a value with only some
// subset of these bits set and ORing it with resource-id-base. Only values
// constructed in this way can be used to name newly created resources over
// this connection."
// So for example (using 8 bit integers), the mask might look like:
// 00111000
// So that valid values would be 00101000, 00110000, 00001000, and so on.
// Thus, the idea is to increment it by the place of the last least
// significant '1'. In this case, that value would be 00001000. To get
// that value, we can AND the original mask with its two's complement:
// 00111000 & 11001000 = 00001000.
// And we use that value to increment the last resource id to get a new one.
