I'm not always sure what weird means, but I understand utility. I currently cannot group knotes windows with each other or with other windows because they eschew window manager decorations. I don't regard it as weird, but rather, a feature of that particular application which I have accepted. Still, grouping with window tabs is immensely convenient for dynamically reorganizing elements of my workspace, which typically includes xterms or emacs frames and is a key part of the workflow I have become accustomed to. Now I'm just coming up to speed on this and I had to go learn what CSD means. And I'm bewildered. What is the point of having a window manager if not to provide a consistent user interface for managing windows? It would seem that the placement, sizing and grouping of windows is its core responsibility, and only very exceptional applications should reasonably override WM preferences. I haven't thought through all of the implications, but I would be OK with a heavy-handed approach that encapsulated a window with CSD within a WM frame, if only to restore functionality I find extremely useful. And yeah, that could be weird... but I prefer ugly and weird to broken. Just my thoughts. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
