Goals for future releases of Openbox (THIS CAN AND WILL CHANGE):
3.0:
* Add XEventHandler class to make event handling better than ever!
* Crazy dope support for dockapps. Fully mimic window maker's handling of them.
* reorganization of class model. Add XWidget class (contains an X drawable).
* key/mouse/action bindings
* handle keyboard input natively instead of relying on an external progra
* remappable bindings for keyboard input and for mouse input.
* break the themeing into a replaceable plugin/script of some form and possibly
also for the bindings.
* new sex menus (circular n shit)
* window stacking layers (i.e. always on top/bottom).
* add atoms for most everything in the window manager
e.g. add _BLACKBOX_STYLE and _BLACKBOX_MENU atoms so that bbtools, bbconf,
etc. can get the current path to the style in use and menu.
4.0:
* have plugins/scripts for most everything as deemed appropriate.
Openbox TODO list:
* make moving/resizing cancellable with a binding
* add asserts all throughout the code to catch bugs.
* make it possible to cycle workspaces by moving the mouse past the edge of
the desktop
* port bbconf to Openbox.
* when workspace name is greater than the width of its text area the toolbar
gets very ugly. I think what's really needed is a new toolbar entirely, which
can let apps dock in it (these would, of course then, be very tiny apps).
* draw non-opaque move/resize frames using the style's borderWidth.
* suppert for XRENDER, and use it for making window decorations/menus/etc
translucent.
