all snapped together forming a single "window", i.e. a single set of close/minimize buttons controlling them.






Member since:
Please let me know if there's a WM out there that already does this, but I would love to be able to hook windows together into window groups, enabling you to basically build a single application window out of lots of smaller application windows. You could then minimize or maximize this grouping as a single unit.
I think a good idea in a window manager would be to eliminate the need for resizing and repositioning windows by making the manager more intelligent, able to figure out such things for you.
