Auto-resizing on display aspect ratio change (laptop docking from 3:2 to 16:9)
If you use any tiling layout, they will adjust to a screen size change. However some additional actions should be taken to move your tag structure from one screen to another. I use shared tags to move my tags.

How to Keep Off-Screen Window Mapped
Make Xorg believe that window is visible. For example you can add a fake screen which will show all offscreen windows or at least ones you'd like to capture. On this way you'll face another problem: you can't show the same window twice. Moreover the window may be tagged with tags only on the same screen. It is possible to partially overcome these limitations (see sharedtags for example).

Laptop lid closed and using an external monitor
After you figure out your power and screens configuration you'll need to move the tags to other screen once their screen disappeared. It's already implemented in sharedtags module. Even if you're going to implement it yourself you can use the module as a reference.

Charitable/Sharedtags spawning clients with rules freezes awesome
I have an issue with using charitable / sharedtags and rules, The issue is that when I spawn an application/client that has rules, while the workspace/tag it is supposed to spawn on is visible on another screen but not focused, awesome freezes/crashes.

Sharing spaces across two monitors
You can't show the same window on the both screens simultaneously (that's an Xorg limitation). Look at shared tags. This module allows you to move a tag with all clients between screens.
- How do I make tags unique for each screen? ex. Tag "1" should only be present on screen "1"

Display all tags regardless the screen

Newbie to window manager, why use awesome over other dynamic wm ?
Awesome is very different from other window managers...It's a framework window manager! Through its API you can create widgets that are not possible in other WMs (ex: [1],[2],[3].[4]). Furthermore, AwesomeWM can be used as a tiling window managers and as a stacking window managers (like XFCE).

Window gets moved to other screen when clicking on a tag
I 'm assuming you created the "switch_stop" tag? Unless, you're changing the taglist names (I don't see any purpose for the "id = switch_stop"). The tag names or 'id' in this context can be found here, https://github.com/manilarome/the-glorious-dotfiles/blob/master/config/awesome/linear/configuration/tags/init.lua .

What awesome wm "thing" do you think needs "noob friendly" documentation the most?
I would also recommend read through other ppls configurations on GitHub like Manilarome, JavaCafe or even mine which I think are pretty decent
