I admit that my example was quite poor, but there are some things that
are strictly out of control of Emacs like,
1. Moving an Emacs frame to a specific virtual desktop / workspace /
tag / group, etc. People call the "workspace" feature by a
billion different names.
2. Make a specific Emacs frame "floating" in tiling window
managers.
I'm not a heavy user of these "window manager rules" so I may not do
enough justification here.
