Fluxbox will do most of the things you mention and other things not
mentioned.  Workspace switching with mousewheel, dragging windows among
workspaces, edge-snapping, built-in keygrabber, and ordering dockapps in
the Slit.  It is also possible to disable window tabs by setting
"session.tabs" to "false" in `~/.fluxbox/init'.  Using Fluxconf
(x11-misc/fluxconf) makes that even easier.

All that said, Openbox appears to have its nicer qualities.  Actually,
I'm thinking of returning to FVWM. :-)
