I like the aero snap though it only goes half the screen. Grid does 1/2, 1/3, 
2/3.

Would be nice if dragging made window fit in grid layoit and if you wanted to 
drag to different workspace hold a modifier key

Isn't Metacity a Window Decorator?

I agree though, Grid is nice. MS's thing of linking it to a mouse  
movement to the side of the screen (Aero Snap, I think it's called) is  
an improvement too, if you don't want to drag windows to another  
workspace off the side.
