The plain-old window managers are sufficiently different from Windows
and Apple that I feel comfortable stating that the developers are not
interested in keeping up with the current desktop trends. That gives
me
high confidence that there won't be many major changes in the way
those
window managers work for years to come. But who knows, I could be
wrong!

That's at least an advantage of tiling window managers: their way of
doing things is in their name :P
More interesting is that they were the way to do things once, and the
little try I gave to windows 8 made me think that they are just trying
to copy that way...
But as for command-line interfaces, they are late (well... in my only
humble opinion of course) because wasted so many times saying that this
way was only the past :D
So, long live i3, ratpoison, twm and alike :P
And, long live all alternative ways to doing things, even if I do not
like some of them.
