+# Manage windows as follows:
+# - the workspace occupies the full screen, a single container in tabbed mode holding all the current windows
+# - one can choose to split that area in half, horizontally or vertically, this creates two new tabbed containers, each occupying half of the screen; one gets the currently-focused window, IIRC, and the other gets the rest of the windows
+# - any new window created in any of these new containers ends up as a new tab of one of these containers; new windows don't change the screen layout
+# - this process can be repeated on each of these new halves if one so wishes
+# In this way, in ion3/notion, the window manager assists you in creating the layout you need, while giving you the possibility of keeping it independent of how many windows you have in a workspace.
