Unfortunately the line seems to be shifting larger and larger. This
attitude is why feature creep occurs. Obviously the line is subjective,
but to some degree its obvious that most feature ideas dont really serve
enough of a purpose to be added. Learning C++ is not difficult and Brad's
code is easy to follow. I wrote the patch that made the workspace menu
come up with middle click with no X programming experience at all.

If those features are useful, use a window manager that has them. You
seem to love blackbox for not being bloated, yet want to add bloat to
it. You can't have it both ways.
