My guess is that it could largely be implemented using Preferences->Shortcuts, hey, and possibly another scripting language such as lua or python to glue it all together. I think it could be simply implemented as a third-party system on top of Haiku. I don’t necessarily think it should be in Haiku by default. Mousing is totally optional, and actually discouraged. It’s not your grandpa’s windowing manager. I couldn’t grasp it until I immersed myself in it. It is different enough that most people would need to experience it to get the gist of it. It is quite an efficient work flow paradigm. Any xorg install should be capable of running it. To get the full picture of what can be accomplished, I’d suggest taking i3wm for a spin on xorg in pretty much any *nix. Make it automated, keyboard driven and utilize the full screen by default. Think of this functionality request as taking stack and tile to the next level.
