Integrating the window manager and emacs

• frames-only-mode

  9 152 6.6 Emacs Lisp

  Make emacs play nicely with tiling window managers by setting it up to use frames rather than windows

For (2), there's frames only mode that is commonly used by tiling wm users. I think this is the one: https://github.com/davidshepherd7/frames-only-mode

• bspwm

  92 7,515 1.0 C

  A tiling window manager based on binary space partitioning

I have actually never used i3 myself, but unless it has option to listen for commands from a socket, you might better be served by bspwm. It is also a tiling manager, probably does not have all or same capabilities as i3, however, option to listen for commands on a socket make it a very good candidate for integration with Emacs. Since Emacs can easily read/write to sockets, you might write a client in elisp and use it from your Emacs. Also, the partitioning algorithm used to manage windows seems to be very similar to Emacs.

Cool, never heard of x11fs before. Yes, it seems like it is done exactly for a purpose like asked by OP.
