My only objection to that is that the grid will end up making the each window generally smaller until it could be hard to know what window represents what content. There are other methods that could be used for that, like stacking similar windows close together, or having really good typography to name each window.

The default setting for laying the windows out is currently "Natural", but to me that layout looks rather random as the windows are scattered all around with different sizes and for me personally it's always hard jumping with eyes all over the screen. Pic here: http://paste.opensuse.org/images/1f043922.png Switching to Regular grid makes the layout more uniform, better aligned, predictable and somewhat consistent. Given that Plasma5 is now all about pixel-perfection and streamlineing, this change imo fits into that. Pic here: http://paste.opensuse.org/images/ac9f8f90.png So I'd like to propose changing the default of Present Windows effect to the grid setting. What do you think?
