Propably not. I once played around with North-East Win Gravity because of 
right to left layouting (for arabic and hebrew environments) in Qt-3, and the 
result was terrible. X11 (XFree at least) doesn't seem to be able to handle 
it correctly (basically the subwindows first move as if they were north-west 
gravity and are afterwards moved to the right position).
