Actually this was not intented as insult or something. It simply
gives an idea of achieving good software quality after some

existing features (like tags replace not only pages/workspaces,
they even make attach/detach/sendtopage totally deprecated,
apart from the 'detached clients layer' and the 'pager') - the
introduction of tags is a good sample how you can making
software more powerful due removing features.
In case where features overlap, or when a new feature would be a simple
extension of existing ones, that is a good principle.
(I recently declined(!) several patches
implementing icon support for the bar and in general for
liblitz).
I personally don't want any unnecessary graphics, but some might. Would
it be a good idea to have some place for storing such patches for those
who might want them (and leaving it for them to get them actually
compile)? ... or then not.
