Ion is a very inovative Window-manager. PWM was the first one to implement tabs. Don't know wether Ion has been the first or one of the first to implement splits. If I have to choose between letting Tuomo continue doing great things and asking him to write a GUI configuration tool, there's no hesitation. Other window-manager now try to implement ideas from Ion. Their priorities may be to reach more users. I don't think this is the *priority* for Ion. But still, I agree that if we can get something *in addition*, that would be perfect :-) -- Matthieu
