Hello,

Thanks for attention.

1. There is no difference between Simplest and Full, but tabBar works
incorrectly with Full.
2. I'm using:
   windowNavigation (subLayout [] (Tall Simplest))

  and (sendMessage $ Go U), for example, navigates through all windows, not only
  inside current tiled group.

  However, (onGroup W.focusUp') (from docs) navigates only in focused
group. Is it possible
  to restrict windowNavigation to that group too?

3. Could you please provide any working example? I've tried focusUp/Down and
   (sendMessage $ Go *) after applying boringWindows to Tall or to
subLayout, but with no success.
