Re: [i3] GLFW_FLOATING window

Hi Kevin, Applications generally shouldn't dictate how the window manager has to manage windows. In fact the specs clearly state that the window manager is allowed to deny, allow or modify such requests and that the application needs to deal with that. Also note that if you provide proper info
