GNOME Plans to Add a New, Unconventional Window Management

This might be what I was looking for all along in a window manager. For the longest time, I've been dissatisfied with the drawbacks of both floating and tiling WMs, but hopefully this can deliver the best of both worlds.
Yeah some windows are meant for floating and some are meant for tiling, nothing can really get around that. It would definitely be cool to take more steps in identifying which is which and having that be their default behavior.
If I understand what you mean this is a solved problem.
As instance in bspwm I just wrote this line in the config then all images opens as a floating window.
bspc rule -a Sxiv state=floatingI guess many other tiling WM are able to do that.
That's something you have to set up manually, it's not default behavior right?
Its not default behaviour, some people may not want images to be displayed like that. You can apply rules on any application.
