I had it on the status bar before and hated it. I have never found any use for tagging.

This may have changed in more recent version of scrotwm, but back when I
last tried it, the statusbar also was not able to show you which
workspaces currently had windows on them, so I ended up quiting scrotwm
and X when I still had windows open... not fun.



Scrotwm now has two settings :

title_class_enabled     Enable or disable displaying the window
class in the status bar. Enable by setting
                                 to 1
title_name_enabled    Enable or disable displaying the window ti-
tle in the status bar. Enable by setting
                                 to 1
These show what is open in a window when AT the window.
Perhaps this function could be exploited to add a prompt when quitting with windows active?
Or add an optional row to status bar showing active windows.

I agree, I don't like having to tab through 10 windows before shutting down.
