I have a personal question to ask: why run /any/ window manager under

It would
seem very confusing to me to shift mental gears for window manager
issues when
inside or outside of Aqua. What is the big advantage I am missing here?
Some people have been using other WMs for many years on other
platforms. Some of those WMs are highly configurable, and long-time
users have tweaked them extensively to fit their work habits. The
switch to quartz-wm would be quite painful to them.
