don't understand why everyone wants to run GNOME Shell with a dock. It
clutters up your screen, uses a lot of memory (especially Docky), and
it just isn't necessary at all.
First you make the statement that a Dock is in no way needed.

The problem is: Current Gnome Shell lacks one-click active window
switcher. Let's think how could we solve it.
Actually you can switch windows with only one click; the Activities
button features a hot corner so you don't need to click on it.

Hi everybody,
I'm trying to modify the js files so to have working CtrlAlt Up /
Down to switch between up/down layouts as well.
I managed to change between workspaces :

... and here a piece of the part of windowManager.js :
...

I believe that the suggestion is for moving windows quickly out of the
current workspace. For organizing windows if a situation where there
are many workspaces (i.e. moving a window two workspaces down), the
overview should be used.
A pie menu would be an addition to the current interface,
If you really needed to place the window on a specific workspace, then
you should use the overview. If we add this functionality to the pie
menu, we would sacrifice the ability to throw widows out of the way,
and I believe that is the main benefit of such a menu-it allows users
to quckly
The problem with switching windows through the overlay is that it
floods the user with all sorts of information, thus breaking the
workflow. Swithcing windows shouldn't involve breaking the workflow.
