What WM should I use?
Use BSPWM. It supports right clicks by default and its modular. You might want to look for status bars that work with it, slstatus does not work. Good luck, supremacist!

What are some OpenSource apps that are the best of their kind?
I had not heard of bspwm but I am a fan of telling WMs. Looking at the documentation now, I really like the pragmatic approach lol https://github.com/baskerville/bspwm

Changing layout of node
If you use the bspwm off of github instead of the old 0.9.10, you can use bspc node @parent -y next to cycle the split type of the parent of the focused. I added it ~1.5years ago, after baskerville added node -y horizontal and node -y vertical to set the split type of a node to vertical/horizontal ~2 years ago.

How to use dump and load state?
Also bspwm's JSON generation and parsing is not great. If you have a window with quotes in its class name, bspwm, when dumping it, will not escape them generating invalid JSON (e.g. {"className":"the "cool" window",) that jq will not be able to read, and even worse, bspwm itself will not be able to read. (Yes, if a window's class name contains a " character, bspwm will fail to reload after you run wm -r #1362).
