I remember that! And I didn't like it either. ;-) (I think it was the time were I wrote the first entry on the bug) Problems (in my opinion - am I wrong?): 1) Narrow Windows consume too much space. In the top-right workspace the narrow bottom-right window consumes more space than necessary. 2) Windows' relative size is not recognizable. In the top-right workspace the bottom-left window seems to have the same size like the two other similar looking windows - but, in fact, is much smaller (see titlebar). 3) Grid makes Windows' positions less informative. This is best seen if you place a window on the bottom-left and another one on the top-right of a workspace (maybe overlapping) and compare the patched behaviour with the currently implemented. So far.
