    every time gnome tries to do things, it gets further away from the gnome i loved…

    whilst there is a lot of interesting thinking here, it’s fundamentally trying to solve a problem I don’t want solved. I don’t want the pile of papers on my desk to never overlap, it’s already overlapping and hiding each other based on where my brain knows they are. It’s a mess, but it’s a mess my brain knows. it’s a structural mess.

    leave my windows alone!

      It may not be of interest to you personally, but the growing popularity of tiling window managers means there’s a lot of demand for this type of feature.

      As long as they give the user the ability to opt out/in, what’s the harm in introducing it?
