i think the real problem people have with it is the visual one: there
really is a box (window) on screen that holds all your inferno
windows.

the new inferno window manager allows one to break out of this box, in
principle (i've done such a thing for rio, except later changes broke
it; charles suggested a fix which i should implement sometime).

under other systems, it would need a change in the draw device to
allow multiple windows (it's not entirely clear what the base
abstraction should be), but that shouldn't be too hard, it's just
setting the time aside to do it!
