Read the changelog. You might want to try, for example
Mod1+F3 _:screen_of():set_stdisp{type="WDock", corner="bl",
orientation="horizontal"}
The next time you start Ion, the dock will be created automagically.
This way the dock will be embedded in WIonWS layout so that it only
steals the space it really needs modulo frame boundaries. The feature
is not finished yet, but should work well enough as long as you don't
try to change corner and orientation on the fly.
Old floating behaviour will also be possible once I add support for
"passive" WMPlex layer 2 objects. Then, adding a floating dock
(permanently) should be a matter of
Mod1+F3 _:screen_of():attach_new{type="WDock", layer=2, passive=true,
... dock positioning params...}
But some toggling routines are also needed.
