I've been thinking about the issue of window groups tabs etc. I agree that the current right click window group system is not really quite immediate enough to make window grouping worthwhile. I have a proposition for a manner in which to do window grouping here: http://jedidiah.stuff.gen.nz/window_groups.html That involves a whole new level of complication/control over groups that people may not wish to pursue (though I, presonally, think it is the direction we ought to be heading). I would be quite open to any thoughts, criticisms, comments, or suggestions on the system. Refining and improving what I have there can only be a good thing. Thanks.
