[Tfug] Running a terminal in the root window

True, and I admit I hadn't thought about that.

You could, however, program keyboard shortcuts into your .sawfishrc that 
would allow you to navigate desktops and viewports without using the 
mouse. You could do the same with your root menu as well as any 
additional menus you'd created (I personally think the default 
middle-click root menu way of doing things is, um, lacking):

(bind-keys global-keymap
	"W-F1" `(popup-apps-menu)
	"W-F2" `(popup-menu my-menu)
	"W-F3" `(popup-root-menu)
)

The above comes out of my own rc file where the apps-menu has been 
separated from the root-menu and my-menu is a third menu defined 
elsewhere in the same file.


+ I'm probably responding to some of what was said below:
