Hi, really appreciate work but to enhance new tiling feature, have some ideas
inspired by other systems:
ACTUAL BEHAVIOR:
Generally, window managers allow moving windows by Alt/Meta + LMB (Linux
axiom). Modifier isn't needed to end up action (you don't need to hold modifier
to move the window, but only trigger moving).

ENHANCEMENT:
Using KZones script, it is possible to set Alt/Meta key as a tiling trigger. 
When both those modifiers are set same (system settings and KZones), usage is
so convenient: the same key activates moving and tiling. No combinations with
Shift or other. If moving is in progress, holding the modifier triggers tiling.
Especially convenient if such a modifier is remapped to mouse buttons (e.g. MB4
or MB5), so pressing:
MB5 + LMB to drag window, 
MB5 + RMB to resize,
MB5 + MMB to close.
The Shift key as a secondary hard-coded modifier gives another step of
complication in such a setup. 

Wrapping up, IMO would be nice: when move window is needed, modifier + LMB
triggers moving, but during moving, modifier activates tiling if held.
