Well, I'm not going to re-invent the wheel. After all, ProWesS already
exists, it's open source and anybody can alter it the way one wants.
But unfortunately I haven't seen much progress there (I played around
with adding some 3d look and feel to it but then didn't have enough
time) and there's no reason to assume this'd be different with yet
another new window manager.

After all we won't get masses of new applications just because there's
another fancy window manager on the street. But there are quite many
existing PE applications out there which could be adapted very easily
for use with the new colours.
