Switching to the I3 Window Manager
I love i3 but it's really missing a way to group workspaces, I use https://github.com/infokiller/i3-workspace-groups but it's subpar, what I'd really really like is a native workspace matrix...
- Alt tab like functionality

Is there a tilling WM that (natively) supports grouping workspaces?
I'm currently using i3 and I would like a better way to organize workspaces, and have more of them. I tried this script to simulate workspace groups, however it is quite slow, which is a real issue for me.

In I3, there is already many attempts (one example https://github.com/infokiller/i3-workspace-groups), but unfortunately none of them seems to have some consensus.
