+1 for removal. The idea was nice (my idea, so it had to be nice, right ;-P) but never catch up to its potential due lack of apps and time to properly integrate stuff. Currently unmaintained as you state.
For the records, its idea was to allow applications to easily implement single instance and expose its internal "view", such as make tabs available to the WM so we could use that external entity to list tabs and windows, somehow like Android does for Google Chrome tabs. It would also expose some application methods, like to open something, which would easily work for first time launch (ie: argc/argv) or already running processes, also a way to request the app to close and save state, like done in phones or Mac applications. Great potential, but not realized.
