Everything is kind of a mess, and some things are under other things, but I know where everything is exactly. Wmii is like my desk, except that my girlfriend just organized everything for me while I was in the bathroom. Everything is in a straight line, there are no big piles, and she removed the box of cookies (that I was still eating). Sure she does a good job, but itgets tiresome having to relearn my desk every time I go to the bathroom.That is a neat summary. But in contrast to your girl, wmii manages everything in a predictable way (at least in wmii-3 it should do so). That's the difference. And because it is predictable, you simply know where a window is. This is pretty much the same to the scenario you put specific windows always in the same place.
I will admit I used 2.5 up until a few days ago. I just installed wmii-3 when an apt-get dist-upgrade hosed my linux partition (all I have left is busybox). My comments were mostly aimed at 2.5. I will give 3 a good shot ASAP.
