It's fine for you to discuss all you want, but the focus of this list should
be on producing a functional replacement of the GNOME WM spec, not to discuss
the nice-but-irrelevant pie in the sky features. So far people have put a lot
of effort into arguing over (necessity of pager interaction|wm-independant
configuration|MDI|...), without making much progress on the useful & needed
GNOME WM spec replacement.

So basically, Miguel & you are both off-topic... WM spec version 2.0 can take
care of MDI and all these other cool features, but 1.0 is the task at hand.
