Querying the tree here and there is really painful. You'll
notice much more load. And it makes no sense, because we have
the infomation implicitely if the data structure is slightly
extended. (I expect it can be done in 20 additional lines after
all with all the benefits I pointed out).
Also, focus recovery for tiled clients won't work with the
z-layer strategy and focussing always the master is often enough
in the way (at least for me).
Hm... But wouldn't that mess up focus order in tiled mode (I mean,
when doing a couple of non-clockwise mouse-based focus-changes,
keyboard based focus-order would become quite random).
I think it would be better to use snext (or whatever its name will be)
for keeping track of the z-order instead (and pop a client whenever
it's raised by restack()). This would leave focus-ordering intact, and
still retain z-order (I'll say it again: mixing client-focus-order and
client-z-order up is bound to lead to problems).
