That would be cool indeed.

But how would I replace stumpwm with let's say twm? When I killall sbcl
it will shut down X completely.

If I'm in twm and kill it, X won't shutdown and all windows will still
be there. If stumpwm would behave the same, this looping construct would
be trivial.

What does that mean to windows that belong to other groups that
current-group? Do I lose them or will they appear all on one
group/desktop?
