More playful than anything else;

If a user "shakes" a window, any other grouped windows will separate until no more windows are left in the group. A small amount of kinetic energy might be applied to the new windows, if possible.

Please see the attachment for a mockup.

This feature request was originally submitted through KDE Brainstorm, and has been submitted to Bugzilla due to popular demand. Original idea: http://forum.kde.org/brainstorm.php?mode=idea&i=84601

Reproducible: Didn't try
Comment 1 Martin Flöser 2010-08-11 18:26:22 UTC 
I don't like the idea, as I consider Shaking as a non-intuitive way to 
interact with windows and because Microsoft Windows has a similar feature with 
other functionality.

I agree with Martin
Comment 3 Martin Flöser 2012-03-14 15:53:39 UTC 
I'm sorry but this feature request won't be implemented for reasons see comment #1.
