As discussed on the mailinglist [1] the tiling support is
removed from KWin. The main reasons for this step are:
* it is unmaintained
* it is a mode not used by any of the core KWin team
* original developer said at Akademy 2012 that he is not
interested in picking up the work again
* tiling has quite some bugs, e.g. multi screen not supported
* is conflicting with other concepts in KWin, e.g. activities
There is ongoing work to get tiling supported through a KWin
script, which is a preferred way as it does not influence the
existing C++ code base.

If three successive ones take more than 1 sec, suspend compositing,
as that very likely means the system is totally incapable of decent
compositing. Perhaps may need little tweaking.

means any GPL). Decoration clients will come later.

I couldn't resolve one kicker conflict that results from different
development directions, so I rely on Aaron to sort it out - the file
is commited with conflicts

People who use hidden Kicker, have their taskbar configured to show
only windows on the current desktop or similar now may configure
it so that windows that didn't get focus because of focus stealing
prevention now can not only have their taskbar entry marked
but there can be e.g. also a passive popup.
