This sounds interesting. But what i dislike a little bit are the
required clicks onto the desktop. This means that you always have to see
a part of the root-window. Perhaps a good approach for this was, having
1 pixel at the borders always uncovered (you should not be allowed to
maximize, resize or move windows about this 1 pixel area). Is this
possible somehow? Alternatively i would use hotkeys.

Thanks,

Gert
