Encourage more people to use window managers like ratpoison.

On the surface, these window managers look slow, clumsy, out-dated,
inefficient, etc.

Its not until you start using them, that you realize the reverse is
true.

However, you do have to free yourself from the concept that you have
to have full control over the exact positions of every window.
