Re: Aquamarine + beryl

Well, it's not just about decorations, but features that are built into the window manager. Little things, like mouse focus modes, switching virtual desktops, snapping windows the screen edges, these sorts of things. While many of these features will be in beryl now, they have been in KWin for a decade, and just about every fringe use case has been programmed for. You should try running X without a window manager once just to see how much work a window manager actually does for you.
