The tagging concept would stay, except the ability of viewing more than 1 tag at a time (though a specific window could be sticky because it contains all tags). > Is your concept limited to horizontal columns or are vertical columns or > both simultaneously possible?

What won't be possible is having rows and columns mixed together -- at least I won't support this officially. Kind regards, -- Anselm R. Garbe >< http://www.suckless.org/ >< GPG key: 0D73F361
