Ah, I see. I don't use the mouse for what I described, so as long as full screen windows can still be tiled my use case is covered.

I cannot judge the cost of additional complexity to dwm's source. But I think being able to use certain sucky apps in 'full-screen-tiling' mode actually makes the world suck a little bit less. I don't believe e.g. evince or chromium will be 'fixed' anytime soon in this regard. Cheers, Arian
