4x3 = 12 (TWELVE!) combos to remember/learn to manage windows?
Currently I have (i think) only three: mwresize (left and right) and zoom.

I would reiterate that the whole appeal of dwm is to manage my windows
in a predictable way and get out of my way. All this capability to
move windows around is exactly why i abandoned wmii (not to mention
non-tiling WMs) in the first place, wasting to much time organizing
windows "just so".

And I would like to echo that the ability to mix and match what tags I
am viewing is the real "dynamic" backbone in dwm. I separate
applications by tag and then view the tags I need for the job at hand,
whether thats a text editor and www for reference, web and chat on the
side, I pull in email periodically to check it and then dismiss it.
Without the ability to quickly bring in windows not in the current
view, whats the point of tags?

Regards,
-Andrew
