The developer of wio is the same that wrote sway (an i3-like Wayland
compositor) and wlroots, which is now used by many projects. Sway is
definitely a really nice environment to work in.

I would say that I prefer a tabbed+tiled environment and would love a Rio
variant that behaves like i3 or DWM with workspaces and tiling (dmenu does
not make sense on Plan9 due to namespaces - so execution from terminal
windows like in Rio would still be the same).

If I am making a "laundry list" of wishes I would also love such an
interface to be based on the solarized colour schemes (dark, light).
