Hi!
Description:
mlvwm is a window manager for X11 designed to look and feel like the
Macintosh<tm> environment. It provides multiple desktops, separate menu
bars for different applications, and the ability to interact with
applications from that menu bar. It does this by sending key sequences
to the application, such as ctrl-X or alt-Y.

That makes it suitable for main, if I don't misread it. Furthermore I
found out that even it looks quite nice it doesn't consume much memory.
But find out yourself.
I'd also like to notice that due to this package I might package xap
too, the X Application Panel. Not decided yet, stay tuned for
stand-alone ITP on that topic.
If you think that this package isn't really needed and would just
pollute our server (although it's really small in size) just let me
know, too.
So long,
Alfie
