[ILUG] window manager suggestion?

You really have to admire this project for attitude, if nothing else.

However the automatic default for _every_ X client screen, even things
like file-picker windows, to full-screen is really obnoxious -- and
similar gotchas that I can't really remember, all of which go away if
you use ion, instead.

And, yeah, evilwm, pwm, fluxbox, blackbox.  All good.

Last I heard, ion and pwm were being merged.  Intriguing.
