Mostly this happens with Gimp and Unity - both these programs often spawn popups for selecting options such as color wheel and asset selection. But anything involving brief popups is very annoying since komorebi tiles it like a normal window. This leads to a pretty obnoxious workflow and can screw up views (you're trying to select a color but now the view is shifted so you can't even see what you're coloring).

Describe the solution you'd like
The option not to tile popups. Though, really, I don't see why you would ever want to tile popups.

@LGUG2Z commented on GitHub (Mar 5, 2024):

There is no way to target "all popups" unfortunately. When you see an annoying popup, run komorebic visible-windows, create a float rule and add it to your own komorebi.json, and, if you think that 99% of people will want that particular popup ignored by default, please make a PR to komorebi-application-specific-configuration (example) so that when users run komorebic fetch-asc in the future, the rule will be transparently applied for them.
