Yes, I run anything within EXWM, it works just fine. Some frame
customization I need for those programs with multiple frame such as
Gimp for example, or dia and in general all programs work well. Maybe
few not so.

Everything is stable and working well and fine.

Switching WM windows I do not use, I use switch buffer as Emacs buffer
I can switch to video player or browser.

Then I use workspaces, all 10 with M-w to change workspace or quick
M-2 and so on. So often I have let us say email handling on workspace
1, that is where I handle emails, but I may be watching video on
workspace 7, while chat is on workspace 2 and browsing on workspace 3.

I have never experienced Emacs crush with EXMW, but did experience
more faster swapping problem or memory problem which we are trying to
handle on the bugs mailing list.

I just launch video in EXWM. That is all. Install and try, it is
nothing hard to do. Any program I can launch and it looks like it is
within Emacs.
