It's been a while since I used sawfish, but I'd be astounded if edge
flipping has been removed from it; take a look at .sawfishrc for an
edge-flipping option. Someone here will probably pipe up with the exact
option.
Metacity is the default window manager for Gnome 2.x. It was written by
Havoc Pennington originally (IIRC) as a proof of concept for his 'fewer
options with better designer thinking about defaults equals better
functionality' desktop philosophy. Other hackers have added extensions
to scratch their itches; brightside is one of these, so you'd need
both :)
