AFAIK, compiz is the only WM that has parts of XI2 support. I don't know the current state of it and whether that part has been merged into mainline yet. There may be WMs that allow you to move multiple windows at a time (I think I heard enlightenment does so) but that is more by accident :) mpwm was a proof-of-concept only and I haven't looked at it in months. It's probably easy enough to fix up though if you can be bothered, the code isn't pretty but small enough.
