I also think that the second mode is better. As a matter of fact, that's what I'm currently using. If I want to maximize floating windows I just toggle floating after setting the monocle layout. e.g.: when I'm using gimp (which I do very often) sometimes I want my draw window to be maximized having the toolbars on top of it, but if monocle maximizes the toolbars windows it makes gimp unusable. For me, a floating window means: "I don't want the tile algorithm to touch it". my 2 cents, -- - yiyus || JGL .
