In tiled layout, windows are managed in a master and stacking area. The master
area contains the windows which currently need most attention, whereas the
stacking area contains all other windows. In floating layout windows can be
resized and moved freely. Dialog windows are always managed floating,
regardless of the layout applied. The spiral and dwindle layout are special cases
of the tiled layout where the stacking area is arranged in a spiral for the
former or as a rectangular fractal for the later.
