You can add edit_keybind_(F1 to F10) dmenu

Is there a way to make dwm execute commands at runtime
through standard input? Would that be too complex?
All functions should be there, it's just a matter
of parsing user input.
echo set_statusbar string | dwm
normal behavior
echo tag XTerm,1,2,5 | dwm
XTerm gets tags 1,2,5
DWM restart

That's exactly the proposal I had sometime ago, but it scares me
that it will bring unecessary complexity
Rules already have to be written manually - instead of those you
could use bash scripts.
xterm -- echo tag Xterm,2 | dwm
This could cut the rules parts out.

I implemented tag/floating state preservation as prototype shortly

That's debian's doing, not x.org's. X.org has always had both files;

This morning I've been thinking about run time configuration of dwm.
I've never especially liked the compile-time rules table in config.h. The
fact that one or two programs I use happen to be broken and need a rule
with isfloating = 1 doesn't seem like something that the dwm binary
should be

What wasn't in that patch, but is in my tree, is a little convenience
For me, this gives a sweet spot between runtime configurability and
keeping code complexity low, with compiled-in key bindings which are
constant across all the systems I use, but runtime configurable colours,
rules, tag names and commands, which vary from system to system.
