As a "stable main" user I'm never going to suffer any ill effects
if it's broken!  Fortunately the only tweak I'd make is:

Description: keyboard-friendly window manager with tiled windows
 Ion, based on PWM, is an unusual window manager with no overlapping
 windows. Windows are placed in tabbed frames which may be arbitrarily
 split to create additional frames, making keyboard navigation much
 easier. Flexible configuration is possible thanks to Lua, which is
 used as the configuration language.
 .
 There is also support for so-called 'floating workspaces' where
 windows are managed the conventional way, so that you can still run
 applications which do not fit very well into Ion's window management
 approach. A pwm3 binary is included which starts Ion with floating
 workspaces as the default, thus replacing the now obsolete PWM window
 manager.
