After seeing lots of constant questions and requests about various strange ways to do things like window focusing, layering, sizing, etc I have come up with some thoughts that are probably on the TODO list. Please slap me if I am re inventing current plans.
We are currently working on a config system with a basic and advanced levels. The basic level is prepackaged setups, while the advanced gives you access to each bit of configuration possible. There are also some hard coded behaviours like "fullscreen means on top layer". I'm thinking of an easy to use scripting system, themes for window behaviour if you like. Where we remove the hard coded stuff, and replace them with standard scripts/themes, then add a "Really advanced config" where the user can script their own strange preferences. The basic config level will then become "Choose a behaviour theme". The advanced config stays the same, it lets you fully tweak the current theme. Then deviants like me can script "fullscreen means on bottom layer" and other vomit inducing fetishes, everybody is happy. Naturally we should add a window behaviour theme repository to get-e.org. Commence shooting me down in flames... ...wait for it... ...now!
