What about the possibility of implementing shortcuts? A big part of the point of most of these WMs is to minimize the use of the rat ;)

For example, in my WM you'd go c-t s to get an horizontal split, c-t S to get a vertical split, c-t t to switch between the two last used windows, c-t space to cycle through all open windows etc.

Just a suggestion...

I've never used xmonad but if you provide an alternate layout implementation (See TilingWM>>tileWindows: ) + tests :) I will merge it using a Strategy Pattern.

It is a cool project with which I could retrieve my habits from my window manager (I use xmonad) on my GNU/Linux machines.
You talk about emacs as inspiration of your project; why don't take ideas from tiling window manager like xmonad, awesome or others? For exemple, they ��use the concept of layouts to provide several policy on tiling window management.
