Is there a way to tell if containers are nested in a list-like manner?
For example: Con[Con[Con[Win]]]
While you can't create such a situation by just splitting windows, you can end up with this structure by closing windows from a more complex layout.
This makes it confusing to select the parent and the child, respectively.
There is a way to tell, which is by using the dump-asy.pl script you find in i3’s contrib/ directory. In the screencast about containers and the tree data structure, I use it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AWA8Pl...
Apart from that, I don’t think you can tell. Maybe use a less complex layout? :-)
