If I understand correctly, this makes Tabbed return extra (Window,Rectangle) pairs in the list that the layout returns, and allows Operations to set the stacking order? That sounds correct to me. But it'd be a good idea to get Andrea's opinion also... -- David Roundy Department of Physics Oregon State University

I don't think mixing tab windows with regular client windows is a good idea here. It doesn't play nicely with certain layout transformers, like SmartBorders. Cheers, Spencer Janssen

Good point. Have you any suggestion for a better approach to defining the stacking order of these windows? -- David Roundy Department of Physics Oregon State University
