I Wrote earlier
"And why I don't use transient windows instead, well I have further
plans to use the state call - which I described shortly in my previous
post."

I used the wrong term here. I meant sticky, not transient.

And also - a few years ago I used sticky windows for that, but it was
something with the behavior of sticky windows that didn't fill my
needs - I don't remember what it was. But I decided to switch to
bookmarked_window.
And now I make the switch to states. which will take my config way
further from what it is today because I can have multiple states to
one window.

It's more about to explore and learn the advantages of whats possible
than find the simplest solution.
