If done right then yes, it will be. EXWM is the best X11 WM after all. Being able to treat X11 windows as Emacs buffers with the same buffer management mechanisms and keybindings is amazing.

EXWM sounds very cool. Thanks for the hint — I never heard about it. I use swayWM and Emacs (with frames instead of windows) and configured sway to have Emacs-style key bindings. So I mimicked EXWM behavior without knowing about EXWM.

  It's definitely worth a try. I used StumpWM for 10 years before switching to EXWM about 5 years ago. One great thing about merging the concepts of Emacs buffers and X11 windows is that there is only one set of keybindings you need to worry about (the Emacs ones).

    I would immediately switch to EXWM if it would be Wayland-based.
