I use a different UI depending on my mood. XFCE, open box, ratpoison, awesomewm, dwm XFCE and open box are floating. You can set up some key binds to snap windows. Overall I think floating + snaps are superior to pure tiling. I use XFCE when i want a big fat desktop environment. Pure open box for something light. Sometimes I want pure tiling. ratpoison (manual tiler) is my mainstay for that. Occasionally use awesome or dwm for a dynamic tiler.
