I wonder if someone wants to hack up a demo `fisheye' layout,

Probably would look super nice with compositing (actually shrink the clients not in focus), but oh well.

I wrote something roughly like that (Accordion layout). I've been waiting to submit it until we fix layouts so that they get the whole workspace, since it currently has the bug that when you switch Xinerama screens it no longer knows which window is focused.

Ah yes, of course. I've done a draft rewrite of the StackSet module, which breaks the focus and tiled layers into separate Stacks. The code is a bit gunky, so I'll be coming back to it in the next few days (meant to do it today, but couldn't muster the courage). Once that is in place, layouts will get the stack, and you can find focus easily. -- Don
