Uhu? since when does winwatch(1) need a 9P interface?
Anyway, obviously the 'master-tagbar' should be builtin.

Wrong, that is not what i meant, sticky-floating clients should appear
in all views always in the same position (and they should show up in
all views even if the tag for the new view did not exist when the
client was started). Basically sticky clients are in an extra layer on
top of views that is always visible.
