With window switcher you mean Alt+Tab, right?

Having those two synced sounds reasonable and I would suggest to go for only current \
desktop as by default it's only  one desktop and means less clutter.

without borders you cannot resize the window. Nuno has been begging me to improve the \
situation and maybe I get to  do something about it. Anyway this is something Nuno \
has to decide and IIRC he wants to have it on per app basis, e.g.  Konsole without \
borders, others with borders.

Apart from that we can hardly change anything in a general way for window \
decorations. This would have to be  completely inside the Oxygen decoration.
