Welcome! I'll try to answer the bits I know. You'll see that all options
can be configured from the preferencies, no need to hack conf files.

1) should be working that way, but I know there are some libs that do not
behave that way (java, for example). Check preferencies -> windows ->
options -> new windows

2) you don't need enlightenment_remote for keyboard, just go to options ->
input -> keyboard.

3) gtk apps should not be E concern as it uses EFL libs. Maybe you need to
load gnome services? preferencies -> applications -> desktop environment.

4) preferencies -> windows -> window seletor (may have a different name, I
run E in spanish :P)

5) Don't use task, so I can't tell

6) dito 5°

7) haven't seen that behaviour, sorry

8) you don't want to resize windows from titlebar? I think that's up to the
theme, you could select in pref -> apearance -> borders -> noresize to get
that (but I think that make everything non-resizable...you could try anyway)


cheers!

>              - however, the window does appear in the pager and the
> taskbar, but is otherwise not visible on the desktop
>      - to make window visible, change to another desktop and come back.

> 8) I would like to have the entire titlebar do the same thing when
> left-clicking it instead of having just the top part of the bar resize
> and the lower part move.
> However, In Signal Binding Settings I can't set action params to do
> this. I need to set 'end' for mouse,up,1 on e.event.resize.t, but the
> params aren't editable.

> In case it helps, I'm on Archlinux using enlightenment 0.19.2-1.
