I disagree with the tabbed shelf, there is really no counterpart in
WindowMaker.

Same here. I prefer the WindowMaker over the GWorkspace's. Plus there
are so many dockapps for WindowMaker.

I prefer WindowMaker's clip over the Fiend in GWorkspace for several
reasons:

(1) Non-GNUStep apps doesn't need to wrapped in an app wrapper.

(2) Although I don't have this problem, but for people with small
    screens the "auto-attract" feature is good for saving screen space
    at the bottom.

I tend to use the clip for monitoring and system apps (such as a more
featureful mixer than wmmixer) to save space for the appicons and
miniwindows of major programs.
