FreeBSD x11-wm : alloywm

Has title bars, shading, resizing, automatic placement, window list

 This window manager is yet another descendant of aewm.  It has title bars,
shading, a widget for resizing, automatic placement of windows (with the upper
left corner at the current position of the mouse) as they open, and a list (by
title) from which windows may be chosen for raising or un-iconizing.  Some
features are implemented in applets, not all of which work in this port.

from the home page:
	It is somewhat ICCCM compliant (it knows what a transient window is,
	and catches client messages and knows the MIT-SHAPE). It does not try
	to look like any other known OS (though, some people tell me it looks
	like Mac OS, others say Amiga.) So, if you want a window manager that
	is sanely usable within the smallest constraints (and without you
	thinking you have an inept piece of software), then this is for you.

from the README:
	As its name implies, alloywm is a quite exquisite, aesthetic little
	window manager for X11.  The premise of this window manager is not to
	be over-bloated [...] to keep the interface out of a user's way [...]

	It is not very configurable [...]

	[...] you cannot click inside the window to give focus [...]

v. 1.12 date: 2006/02/11 21:03:11; author: netchild; state: Exp; lines: +1 -1 Reset maintainership to ports@ after ~4 months without any response to any PR. Thanks for contributing. Since the acroread7 port is a somewhat important port for our users, I will hand it over to emulation@ if no _active_ *committer* takes it before the ports freeze. While I'm here: - fix a little nit in the csound port (I think the intention was to create no backup file instead of creating one with a "-e" extension) - set ARCH to i386 in the amd64 case for the acroread7 port. This is a work-around to be able to install everything when a dependency is not already installed (ARCH is read-only in sub-makes, so the dependencies can't change it). This should be removed when the dependencies are fixed or converted to use bsd.linux-rpm.mk.
