While this wasn't particularly endorsed it also wasn't completely rejected on discord.

And because I hate Clutter and love GTK (a little exaggerated) I decided to go ahead and put together this little POC :)

Fixes #2114
Fixes #2057

Fixes #2080 (this is purely coincidental but since with this a newly launched window will never be the first on a workspace, the stack position is correct)

Fixes #1672 (while I can't reproduce that and it might already be fixed the backtrace there points to the background cache and source which is removed here so IMO it's pretty safe to assume it's fixed at the latest here)

TODO:

  • Spanned mode
  • Lots of testing (multiple displays, scale factors, etc.)
  • X11 support

this sounds like a huge undertaking. Please let me know whether you need someone to test/battleproof it.
