MODERATORS
But they also say that the classic "floating" window state would still be one of the three options. In this case, this would effectively allow users to keep the "standard" behavior if they want.
Yeah, the "classic" mode. Let's just say that I don't believe them. Or that it won't last long. I've been around long enough to see gnome change drasticly for the design teams pet projects, and usually flying in the face of what users actually ask for.
Which is really all I'm saying, this is another step by the gnome design team, away from the reasons that users originally picked gnome. You might be a fan of tiling window managers, but general users, especially ones who have picked gnome for potentially decades, generally won't be.
