It is possible to do this with cwm (calm window manager) from OpenBSD; there is a linux port. It's awesome, the first times in a long time that I have the feeling of "job done" when I shut down the computer. I was previously using a tilling window manager (xmonad), but you can always collect garbage on another workplace. With cwm, the possibility to really hide a window or to group them is unbelievable.
