There is a feature in ctwm I have added and that I absolutely cannot live without, SaveWorkspaceFocus, which restores the point focus when you switch virtual worksapces. It saves me _so_ much mouse usage, I almost don't use at all since I've hacked that in. I have only seen Compiz which has something similar (but it's a bit of a monster dependency, that wm).
Also.... I have a bunch of troubles with alt-tab, it often seems to just make the cursor jump around, and lowering/raising windows is also broken. Living in permanent state of compromises...
