Finally someone using a tiling window manager! I don't know how the stacking folk survive, look at the insane amount of windows just floating around.

I like the concept of tiling managers, but find the implementation lacking. Touting being entirely keyboard driven and configured by learning what to edit in some text configuration file seems like an anti-feature to me in a GUI management system.

I want to be able to drag the windows around to rearrange things with my mouse, not have to remember or look up keyboard shortcuts. The model of dragging things around with a mouse is intuitive and simple. Sure, have the keyboard shortcuts as well, but give us both! If I wanted to have to look up the documentation every time I need to perform the simplest operation with my software tools, I’d use git.

I would love to see some sort of tiling layout manager you could run on top of KDE. (Heresy, I know.)
