Description Stephan Sokolow 2009-02-04 01:40:54 UTC
Version:           unknown (using 4.2.00 (KDE 4.2.0), Gentoo)
Compiler:          x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.25-gentoo-r7-20080501

Someone needs to port the group/flip plugin from Compiz. It's the last really major, significantly useful plugin from Compiz that I like.

Yes, I know window manager tabbing is supposed to be implemented in the core, but this isn't exactly tabbing (most importantly, it doesn't alter the windeco in any way) and proper tabbing still has yet to be implemented despite years, lots of voting, and a $500 bounty.

Besides, this could always be convered to a presentational sub-plugin for some kind of in-core grouping functionality later on.
