instead of having another window appear and cause a relayout, I'd like the new open application to sit on top, a stack I guess
I'm not sure I understand your requirements exactly, but it sounds a bit like what the Full and TwoPane layouts already do.
the ability to flip between windows but within another frame on the screen was brilliiant.
Let me see if I understand. You have, say, a grid of 2x2 windows. When you open a new window, it appears on top of the currently focused one, leaving the other 3 visible. You now move to one of the other 3 and open a new window, which appears on top of the currently focused one, leaving the other 3 visible. Something like that? In other words, a bit like the Full layout on N virtual screens simultaneously visible on the same physical screen?
