Actually, to manage window-configs, I think it might make sense.
I use frames for that (and if your WM supports tabs, you may end up
with the same functionality), but not everyone likes it that way.

This doesn't mean it's a high-priority feature, but if someone writes it
cleanly, I'll happily accept it.  IIUC Alin Soare <address@hidden> has
already started work on it.
