I in fact did this at one point, but the window stacking issue
eventually got to me and convinced me to switch back, even with the
select/paste memory leak I mentioned previously.  Still, it might be
worth another shot at some point, do you find that Kwin works better
than others on osx?  I tried enlightenment 16, flux and... memory
failing... fvwm I think.
