Recently I saw some discussion about a ROOMS-like WM for X11.
Do such things exist yet?  That is, are there WMs which support
the idea of several different windows, from several different clients,
being managed together, as a group?  If so, where would I get ahold
of such?

Also, are there any session managers out there that use the WM_SAVE_YOURSELF
and WM_COMMAND properties correctly?

And thirdly, are there any extensions to GWM to support I/O
activities such as reading and writing files?, e.g. for the porpose
of maintaining configuration databases?

Thanks,
