Window managers

What makes Window Maker so special? I realize its widget set is very
NeXT-ish, it has a dock, and it supports NeXT-style tear-off menus, but why
is it the preferred window manager for GNUstep? Other window managers have
these features (there are a half-dozen dock applications for Linux alone).
Étoilé is developing Azalea, which is a fork of OpenBox.

I hate to see developers' time wasted on duplicating efforts of others. Can
we please have a standard for a "GNUstep-compliant" window manager? I'm
thinking something along the lines of "A compliant window manager must
implement X, Y, and Z."
