This would basically work just like XMMS: when windows are dragged near
each other, they snap together like magnets so when you move one, you
move the whole as a group. The only non intuitive part is a notion of
"root" or "parent" sticky window, so moving the parent moves all of
them, and moving the child detaches it. Alternatively, stickiness could
a metacity menu command, with a corresponding "unstick" command to
detach child windows.
What do you think?
Cheers,
Ryan
