Tablet/Convertible suggestions

[veldspar]

Hi there, I know that its more of a suggestion than an "issue" in the classical sense, however I am using spectrwm on my convertible notebook - there's a few issues which are actually due to spectrwm mostly behaving in the way its supposed to:

• onboard keyboard - you can change workspaces using the onboard on-screen keyboard, however the keyboard itself will not move along to the new workspace. This is the way spectrwm is supposed to work, but my suggestion at the end of this post should prevail a solution. Also, Onboard sometimes looses focus and gets hidden by other tiles(which I think it shouldnt be as it is a floating window, so possible slight incompatibility)
• orientation changes - it happens every now and then that when the screen orientation gets changed(I do this with a script that reads the accelerometer status and uses rand/Coordinate Matrix Transform to rotate the screen accordingly) spectrwm sometimes switches back to the 1:1 Workspace - since this doesnt happen everytime the rotation is changed and I havent figured out the pattern yet, I consider this to be an actual bug/issue

My general solution: Allow for "clickable" buttons to be added to the status bar(if this is even already possible, how?). This would allow to for example add a button for the onboard onscreen keyboard(which changes workspaces to the current when the command is called again, kinda making this a perfect solution). I am currently using a kindof overthought hardware solution for this(Teensy Microcontoller that pushes acts as a keyboard with hardware buttons launching combinations that are defined in the spectrwm config file.
This way the end user could actually set buttons for workspaces and the keyboard for example, making spectrwm the PERFECT window manager for tablets/convertibles, as it gets out of the way of the user. After all theres a reason Smartphones use Tiling WMs :-D
