Still, they have a lot of work to do. The most features are there, sure, but they have to clean up the pathetic mess that are their configuration tools/dialog, and they have to find and fix all the corner cases in window management - pretty much years off work.

Also, if I understand the kwin dev's, they don't have a proper plugin system, but just expose their internals to the plugins - making backwards compatibility or sharing plugins with other windowmanagers very hard (impossible).

Beryl still has some focus issues with their "focus stealing prevention" thing. It doesn't work with kxdocker and yakuake to name a couple, and it just doesn't work nearly as well as kwin's focus stealing prevention.
