I just answered my own question reading the awesome wiki. However, now I have two comments.
1. If floating is going to be the default layout and awesome's attempt to move away from the tiling stigma, then it should also enable titlebards by default (not that I actually hate titlebars and floating mode, but I think they go together). 2. The default rc.lua should explicitly set the last parameter of awful.tag to awful.layouts.floating, that way someone who is only reading the config file can figure out there IS another parameter to be changed, instead of having to browser the web/docs for it.
