I'm not sure what you mean by the stickiness "working". It just means a window exists in multiple workspaces. I guess you might want to check that after deleting a window it isn't present in the stackset, even if it's present in multiple workspaces to start out. The second property involves code in the X monad which isn't currently quickcheckable.
How does it interact with Xinerama, if we're viewing multiple workspaces simultaneously?
I feel like how tagging/stickiness interacts with Xinerama is not really a big issue: Multiple monitors take a lot of the stress off of a window manager, since with the extra screen real estate, you get a lot of the features for free that single-screeners have to emulate. So my opinion as an Xinerama user WRT tagging is, so long as it does something somewhat sane and doesn't crash, I don't care. I'm probably not going to use it anyway. I don't think there's any nice, simple way to make tagging work with Xinerama, and I don't think that's a problem because Xinerama essentially already gives you what you're trying to do with tagging. So if stickiness can be implemented in a way that makes sense for the single-screen case, and doesn't totally screw up Xinerama, I think it's probably a good idea. You poor people stuck within the confines of one monitor need all the help you can get. :) Jason Creighton
